Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor-based light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system for a vehicle, includes: coupling a first optical component with solder disposed on a first portion of the first optical component to a second optical component in a first alignment operation, where the solder disposed on the first portion of the first optical component is not in contact with the second optical component and coupling the first optical component to a third optical component with solder disposed on a first portion of the third optical component in a second alignment operation, where the solder disposed on the first portion of the third optical component is not in contact with a second portion of the first optical component. Heat is then applied to the solder disposed on the first portion of the first optical component and the solder disposed on the first portion of the third optical component.
