  • Multiple path resonator with longitudinal pump arrangement
    Patent number: 5946330
    Abstract: Longitudinal diode-pumped solid-state lasers currently have maximum power outputs of no more than a few watts. By using resonators with several reflection sites inside the active medium, the output power of these lasers can be boosted accordingly. The configuration proposed here differs from known designs in being far easier to handle and less costly to manufacture.
