APPLICATIONS
We have non-disclosure agreements in place with most of our industrial customers, which prevents us from disclosing their exciting applications! However, we do sell a large number of acousto-optic devices to colleges and universities. The researchers listed below have utilized Isomet acousto-optic devices in their work; please visit their websites to learn more about their exciting research projects!
Our
acousto-optic devices were used in the pioneering experiments on Bose-Einstein
condensates that led to Dr Ketterle's 2001 Nobel Prize in Physics. He
is currently John D. MacArthur Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology in Cambridge, MA. Visit Dr. Ketterle's home page

Dr.
Lene Hau, Professor of Applied Physics at Harvard University and principal
investigator at The Rowland Institute of Science, has used Isomet's devices
in her work on Bose-Einstein condensates. Recently, she and her colleagues
demonstrated that the speed of light can be slowed to 17 m/s in a Bose-Einstein
condensate! Click here

Dr.
Rajarshi Roy is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Institute for
Physical Science and Technology at the University of Maryland, College Park.
He has used Isomet's acousto-optic devices in his work on nonlinear dynamics
and noise in optical devices and systems. Access his home page by clicking
