And the more powerful the pulse, the greater the distortion. Yet another major complication has to do with the pulse time profile being different at different points within the laser beam itself. Most ...

Abstract: High-power vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) arrays are increasingly utilized as light sources in modern lidar and three-dimensional optical sensing systems owing to their ...

The high beam fill factor of the flat-top laser can effectively increase the output power of the laser without damaging the components. A fiber-solid hybrid high-energy picosecond pulsed laser system ...
