Abstract

The process of two-dimensional image edge enhancement with an acousto-optical spatial filter using two orders of light diffraction is studied. It is theoretically shown that the diffraction that occurs in a paratellurite crystal on a ‘slow’ acoustic wave propagating orthogonally to the optical axis of the crystal allows enhancing a two-dimensional edge of an image, transferred by optical radiation with a wavelength of 0.63 μm in a wide band of acoustic frequencies 25 – 50 MHz. Enhancement of a two-dimensional image edge at an acoustic frequency of 29 MHz is experimentally demonstrated.
