longitudinal pockels effect
1Pockels effect — The Pockels effect, or Pockels electro optic effect, produces birefringence in an optical medium induced by a constant or varying electric field. It is distinguished from the Kerr effect by the fact that the birefringence is proportional to the… …

3Acousto-optic modulator — An acousto optic modulator (AOM), also called a Bragg cell, uses the acousto optic effect to diffract and shift the frequency of light using sound waves (usually at radio frequency). They are used in lasers for Q switching, telecommunications for …
