Abstract
A vehicular ladar system includes a ladar sensor with a light source configured to generate modulated light. The ladar may be configured to illuminate in one flash the entire scene in the field of view, or may include a scanning mechanism configured to intercept the light generated by the light source and selectively direct the light into a portion of the field of view. A receiving lens assembly receives light reflected off an object in the field of view. A plurality of quantum dot photodiodes are arranged in an array. Each photodiode is configured to receive light from the receiving lens assembly. A readout circuit and a bias circuit are electrically connected to each photodiode. A number of quantum dot film densification methods and apparatus are also described.
