Abstract :
Topaz, an optically biaxial crystal, demonstrates the effects on acoustooptic diffraction geometry of the use of shear acoustic beams propagating in directions other than the symmetry-axes and of changes in the plane of interaction produced by inclining the crystal faces with respect to the incident laser beam.
