An Introduction to Optical SwitchesBased on the characteristics of magneto-optical switch, such as fast switching speed, high reliability, and low cross talk, a time division multiplexing solid-state lidar based on a fiber magneto-optical switch is proposed. First, the working principle and properties of the time division multiplexing solid-state lidar based on a fiber magneto-optical switch are discussed and examined, and the performance indexes of the magneto-optical switch related to the performance of lidar are tested, including ...
