The method is based on counting the number of allowable Feynman diagrams. The following important assertion has been proved rigorously in this paper. The ratios of the numbers of Feynman diagrams allowable in various Bragg diffractions (isotropic, nondegenerate birefringent, and degenerate birefringent) to that in Raman-Nath diffraction are independent of the number of different acoustic frequencies, being a function only of the order of the Feynman diagram and the diffraction order of the final state. General expressions for these ratios are obtained. Based on this, complete perturbation solutions for the scattering amplitudes and intensities are obtained for any kind of AO interactions, any number of acoustic frequencies, and any final state. This theory gives all results obtained previously by the theory of coupled-wave equation. The theory is also verified by comparing with experiments.展开更多

By establishing the relation between the strain magnitude corresponding to any final state S(m1,…,mn; x) and the number of paths from the initial state of the interactingphonons to the final state, not only the complete perturbation solutions but also the corresponding analytical expressions of the acoustic harmonics and intermodulation products have been obtained. For a few special cases, results of our theory is consistent with those obtained by conventional methods. While the general solution for any number of frequencies can easily be obtained by our theory, this is impossible by using conventional methods.展开更多
