Abstract
Single crystals of Tl.sub.3 TaS.sub.4 and Tl.sub.3 TaSe.sub.4 are disclosed which have useful acousto-optical properties, including low acoustic velocities and high acousto-optical figures of merit. They are used in acousto-optical devices such as a display device, a laser modulator, a non-collinear tunable filter, an acousto-optical delay line, and an acousto-optical waveguide modulator.
