The efficient acousto-optic diffraction has been obtained using bulk acoustic waves radiated by an interdigital transducer deposited on the YX lithium tantalate substrate surface. For the case of anisotropic diffraction of the light, propagating in the plane containing the crystal Z-axis and the bulk acoustic wave vector, the frequency dependencies of light incidence and diffraction angles have been studied theoretically and experimentally. The diffraction efficiency attains 10 % with the 1 W electrical power oscillator, which is considerably higher than that for the light propagating in YX plane.
