Self-damping of the relaxation oscillations in miniature pulsed transmitter for sub-nanosecond-precision, long-distance LIDAR

Peak power is a critical factor for sub-nanosecond-pulsed transmitters utilizing laser diodes (LD) and applied to long distance LIDARs (light detection and ranging) for drones and automotive applications. Receiver speed is not anymore a limiting factor thanks to replacing linear (typically avalanche...
