SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the generation of permittivity variation through low-frequency electro-optic modulation, specifically in acousto-optic devices. Participants inquire about the mechanisms behind permittivity changes, which are attributed to density variations. The conversation also touches on the technical challenges of controlling these changes, questioning whether they can be manipulated linearly or exponentially through external electromagnetic fields.
