Abstract:This paper reports the implementation of two critical technologies used in LiDARs: 1) A microchip Q-switched laser breadboard and 2) breadboard of an Indium gallium arsenide avalanche photodiode working at 300 K with high reverse polarization voltages. Microchip Q-switched lasers are small solid state back pumped lasers, that can generate high energy short pulses. The implemented breadboard used an Erbium and Ytterbium co doped phosphate glass, a COMALO crystal with 98% (initial transparency) and an output cou… Show more
