Abstract
The paper is devoted to the theoretical and experimental investigation of acoustooptical tunable filters, based on quasicollinear geometry of light-sound interaction in KDP single crystal. This geometry uses the effect of acoustic anisotropy in KDP, as well as peculiarities of acoustic wave reflections from the free boundary of KDP crystal. The mathematical approach for determination of optical and consructional characteristics of the filters is elaborated. Different types of quasicollinear filters are considered. The filters are intended for UV-VIS regions of optical radiation. The experimental acoustooptical filter was designed and investigated. Typical tunable spectral band is 220-500 nm, the spectral resolution doesn't exceed 0.1 nm in UV region of spectra. The experimental data are in a good agreement with the predicted one.
