Abstract

In this article, acousto-optic interaction in Raman–Nath acousto-optic diffraction has been discussed. By studying the relations between the power of the diffracted light and its origin in the ultrasonic field, we found that the phase of the diffracted light is modulated temporally and spatially by the ultrasonic wave. Finally, we present a method to obtain the Raman–Nath acousto-optic diffraction without the optical phase modulations.
