Devices, systems, and methods are provided for improved heat transfer LIDAR. A LIDAR device may comprise a LIDAR housing configured to attach to a vehicle to detect one or more objects in the field of view of the LIDAR device, wherein the LIDAR housing encloses one or more gases, wherein the one or more gases have a characteristic of being more thermal conductive than air. The LIDAR device may comprise one or more windows allowing light signals to pass through, wherein the one or more windows are attached to one or more walls of the LIDAR housing. The LIDAR device may comprise a rotating platform situated inside the LIDAR housing and configured to rotate around a center axis relative to the LIDAR housing. The LIDAR device may comprise one or more light signal transmitters configured to transmit first light signals through the one or more windows. The LIDAR device may comprise one or more light signal receivers configured to detect second light signals reflected by the one or more objects towards the LIDAR device.
