Elliptical beam amplifying system

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5170582
A laser amplifier system is provided for amplifying laser beams of elliptical cross-section which includes one or more amplifying disc segments of circular cross-section, the diameter of these segments being much greater than their thickness and also equal to the major axis of the laser beam cross-section. The segment of circular cross-section is oriented at an angle to the minor axis of the elliptical beam cross-section given by the cosecant of the ratio of minor to major axes of the beam cross-section and symmetric about the axis of propagation of the laser beam.
