Abstract
We demonstrate sub-170ps pulse generation from electrically gain-switched MEMS-VCSELs that are continuously tunable from 833-848nm. This compact, tunable picosecond pulse source is well-suited to optical coherence tomography, high resolution laser spectroscopy and light ranging applications.
