Abstract: An acousto-optic modulator (AOM) laser frequency shifter system includes a laser configured to generate an incident beam, a first optical splitter optically coupled to the laser and configured to split the incident beam into at least one portion of the incident beam, at least one phase-shift channel optically coupled to the first optical splitter and configured to generate at least one frequency-shifted beam with an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) from the at least one portion of the incident beam received from the first optical splitter, and a second optical splitter configured to receive the at least one frequency-shifted beam from the at least one phase-shift channel and configured to direct the at least one frequency-shifted beam to an interferometer configured to acquire an interferogram of a sample with the at least one frequency-shifted beam.

Abstract: An optical characterization system is disclosed. The optical characterization system may comprise a synchrotron source, an optical characterization sub-system, and a sensor configured to receive a projected image from a set of imaging optics. The optical characterization sub-system may include at least the set of illumination optics, a set of imaging optics, and a diffractive optical element, a temporal modulator or an optical waveguide configured to match an etendue of a light beam output by the synchrotron source to the set of illumination optics. A method of matching the etendue of a light beam is also disclosed.
