AOTF represents Acoustic Optical Tunable Filter.
AOTF is the sound optical element having optical
anisotropy. When a sound wave is spread in the
element, the element behaves as a phase grid and

specific direction. Therefore, it is possible to control
selection of laser wavelength and adjustment of laser
intensity at high speed.
