L dwarf

An object with the spectral type L (also called L-dwarf) can be either a low-mass star,[1] a brown dwarf[2] or a young free-floating planetary-mass object.[3] If a young exoplanet or planetary-mass companion is detected via direct imaging, it can also have an L spectral type, such as Kappa Andromedae b.[4]
