According to one embodiment, an acousto-optic modulator includes an acousto-optic medium and a piezoelectric transducer. The acousto-optic medium has a configuration of a hexahedron. The acousto-optic medium has surfaces D, E, F, G and H. The piezoelectric transducer is provided on a surface C of the acousto-optic medium. The surface D opposes the surface C and has respective four sides shared by the surfaces E, F, G and H. Four angles defined between the surface D and the surfaces E, F G and H each is other than 90°. At least one of eight angles defined between each pair of the surfaces C, E, F, G and H is other than 90°. The each pair has one shared side. |
