Series-level technical context
This model has no standalone PDF and only a small number of model-specific rows. The values below are traceable context from 20 nearby configurations on the same source-product record; they define the parameters to qualify, but are not substituted for an order-specific datasheet.
Nearby series records state Beam divergence (mrad): <1.5, Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <3, and Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <10. These are series context, not guaranteed values for MDL-1550(FC); confirm them on the order-specific datasheet.
Application context

MDL-1550(FC): 1550 nm emission determines compatible optics, coatings and detectors for Optical instrumentation. Beam quality, divergence and pointing stability should be checked against the experiment geometry.
MDL-1550(FC): Laboratory measurement benefits from a stable, focusable source. 1550 nm emission fixes the compatible coatings and detector response, while M², divergence and pointing stability should be confirmed for the intended beam path.
Share wavelength, operating mode, output power or pulse energy, linewidth or pulse width, delivery, control, and safety requirements and we will qualify the matching configuration and lead time.

Choosing a laser
Which specifications decide the experiment, and which ones cost money without changing the result.
PhotonicsLinewidth, spectral width, RIN, M², and coherence length answer five different questions. Translate each into the units your experiment is designed in — and learn which ones not to pay for.
