Description
The CTL is the ultimate choice when looking for a laser that is widely and continuously tunable without any mode hops. It has high power, a narrow linewidth, and low drift and is available between 750 and 1750 nm. Scans can be performed with highest resolution. Mode-hops are prevented by an innovative opto-mechanical design together with an active feedback loop called SMILE (Single Mode Intelligent Loop Engine) that keeps the laser on the same mode at all times (patent US9960569B2). With the fully digital, low-noise, and drift DLC pro controller, the CTL laser is easy to use and operate via touch-screen and knobs as well as via remote PC GUI and command language (Python SDK). DLC CTL includes a test system for characterizing components or recording spectra.
