Abstract
The design and performance of a mechanical shutter for laser light based on low voltage piezoelectric transducers is described. By focusing the beam through a pair of piezo-mounted slits, a transmission of 80%, a switching time of 10 μs, and an extinction ratio of 300:1 are obtained. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
