Abstract

In the research of high power and high energy solid laser system and it's application, there are some traditional limits imposed by the maximum available volume of a single active medium.[1] These limits can arise from fundamental laser characteristics or they can arise from practical constraints of supporting technologies such as the limitation of crystal (laser active medium, e.g. Nd:YAG) growing, the increasing difficulty of cooling as the volume of laser medium grows, or so.
