Abstract
The lines of development of terahertz (THz) band acousto-optic (AO) light control methods are analysed. Aspects of operations with long-wave radiation are identified. Requirements to the THz-band AO interaction medium are systematised and achievable characteristics of AO devices are evaluated. Methods and achievements in the field of THz-band acousto-optic are reviewed and perspectives for development are noted.
