Abstract
A mounting arrangement for positioning an acousto-optic modulator in a beam of radiation so that it is adjustable to pivot the modulator unit in a plane including the beam and thereby to accurately position the angle of entry of the beam into the modulator unit. The mounting arrangement includes a planar base member, secured at one end, and adapted to be pivoted along at least one line of flexure to control the position of the modulator relative to the beam.
