Abstract
We introduce the concept of multi-aperture slow-light laser radar (SLIDAR). Using two independent fiber-based techniques to control the group delay together with optical phase locking, we demonstrate experimentally a proof-of-principle system which is capable of performing angular scanning in two orthogonal directions.
