LiDAR

Si photonics non-mechanical FMCW LiDAR has been developed. In our SLG scanner LiDAR, an external frequency modulator has been used to generate the FMCW optical signal, but it is found to be a large facility and noisy. We report a simpler configuration that directly modulates the DFB laser by pre-distorting the current waveform to cancel out nonlinearities. The noise was suppressed by combining this method with a new LiDAR chip, and a point cloud image of a plaster cast was obtained.
