What Does ECDL Stand For?

ECDL stands for External Cavity Diode Laser

ECDL, or External Cavity Diode Laser, is a type of laser that employs an external optical cavity to enhance its performance characteristics. This configuration allows for precise tuning of the output wavelength and results in improved spectral purity, stability, and coherence. ECDLs are widely used in various applications, including spectroscopy, telecommunications, and sensing, where high precision and reliability are essential.
