Abstract
This study presents an eye-safe, single-mode, nanosecond-pulsed, and all-fiber laser
source with master-oscillator-power-amplifier configuration at 1 550 nm that is suitable for
high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) imaging light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system. The
output peak power of 7.6 kW is obtained at the 1.2-ns pulse width and 50-kHz repetition rate. The
single-mode pulse laser output ensures the range precision and imaging results of the LIDAR system.
The laser is used as a transmitter for the 3D imaging LIDAR system. The detailed characteristics of
the LIDAR system and the results of the 3D imaging are presented.
