Research and development in LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology has significantly grown over the last years, with a strong demand from the automotive industry. Size, weight and cost are some of the major driving forces when exploring new LiDAR architectures. Emerging systems try to break away from mechanical scanning devices by using optical phased arrays (OPAs) or focal plane arrays. Furthermore, photonic integrated circuits (PICs) open the possibility of densely packing most of the required photonic building blocks on a single Si/SiN chip using CMOS-compatible foundry processes. In this talk, we summarize our recent work in PIC-based components for developing solid-state LiDAR systems, with a focus on 2D beamsteering chips operating in NIR and SWIR wavelengths.
