EOM: In the case of an electro-optic device, a pulse picker consists of a Pockels cell and some polarizing optics, the Pockels cell manipulates the polarization state, and the polarizer then transmits or blocks the pulse depending on its polarization. AOM: The principle of an acousto-optic pulse picker is to apply a short RF pulse to the acoustooptic modulator so as to deflect the wanted pulse into a slightly modified direction. The deflected pulses can then pass an aperture, whereas the others are blocked.
