摘要: We report a new type of high-speed electro-optic (E-O) beam scanner based on Potassium Tantalate Niobate (KTN) crystal. It has larger scanning angle, better angular resolution, and lower driving voltage comparing to the traditional E-O crystal scanner. Compared conventional moving mirrors such as servo-controlled and galvanic mirrors, the demonstrated can improve response time by 100 times. The presented device many other unique features light weight, small dimension, low power consumption, no-moving components particularly suitable for airborne space-borne applications.
