| Description | We have demonstrated that diamond Raman lasers are able to generate high-energy pulses in the eye-safe regime with properties relevant for lidar. |
| Exploitation Route | Industrial collaborators may choose to implement this approach in lidar, systems, in particular following further verification that modified but still simple commercial fiber laser systems can be used as pump sources. |
