Apparatus is provided comprising a laser source, a collimating lens, a focussing lens and a detector array disposed along an optical path. A surface acoustic wave transducer is disposed between the collimating and focussing lenses and is adapted to modulate laser light provided by the laser source as a function of the amplitude and frequency of energy applied to the transducer. In accordance with the invention, a 90 DEG Bragg diffraction grating disposed between the collimating lens and the transducer, is adapted for transmitting light of a predetermined frequency and predetermined polarization along the optical path. A specific embodiment incorporates the components on an integrated circuit chip. |
