Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of laser detection and semiconductor optoelectronic devices, and in particular, relates to a VCSEL linear array for a multi-line laser radar. The VCSEL linear array specifically comprises a semiconductor substrate, m-element vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL) in a linear array and m-element optical microlenses, the m-element VCSELs in a linear array are prepared on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate, and the m-element optical microlenses are arranged on the back surface of the semiconductor substrate in an array; the m-element VCSELs are mutually independent and output m paths of mutually incoherent laser signals; and the VCSELs are in one-to-one correspondence with the optical microlenses, and the optical microlenses are used for collimating laser emitted by the VCSELs corresponding to the optical microlenses and regulating and controlling the light emitting direction to form multi-line laser beams. According to the invention, collimation and light beam direction regulation and control of a VCSEL output laser beam are realized; and the optical scanning structure of the laser radar can be simplified, and the cost of the laser radar is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser detection and semiconductor optoelectronic devices, in particular to a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) linear array for multi-line laser radar. Background technique [0002] Unmanned driving technology is a cutting-edge technology that is about to change human life, and lidar plays an irreplaceable role in the development of unmanned driving technology. In recent years, a number of enterprises and scientific research institutions have done a lot of work on multi-line work, beam scanning and weight reduction of lidar, and have continuously met the requirements of unmanned driving for lidar. Especially in terms of multi-line work, commercial lidars with 64 or more lines have come out, and the number of lines of unmanned lidar has become an important indicator to measure its performance. [0003] At present, the widely used method to realize the multi-line operation of lidar is: use mul...
