Abstract

We report on the calculation method for the development of fiber-coupled acousto-optical (AO) spectral filtration modules compatible with conventional inexpensive wide-band light sources (incandescent lamps). The formulas for main parameters of the optical systems of such modules are given. Two possible schemes (collimating and telecentric confocal) of AO filtration are discussed and compared. Their optical throughput and aberration parameters are analyzed. The proposed approach may be useful for the tunable light filtration in various applications (microscopy, endoscopy, interferometry, etc.).
