Bragg diffraction from longitudinal acoustic waves in tellurium is employed to modulate the 10.6-μ output of a CO2–He laser. Two of the photoelastic tensor components are obtained and it is shown that the efficiency with which an acoustic wave in tellurium diffracts light greatly exceeds that of any other known material.
