Abstract

The beampath of input radiation in alignment with the longitudinal axis of symmetry of a rectangular parallelepiped laser slab is divided and criss-crossed by a Brewster angle input prism member into two criss-crossing beam path portions fed into the slab input end face for criss-crossing multiple-reflection propagation along the slab to its output end face to be reunited into the single longitudinal-axis-aligned beam by a Brewster angle output prism member adjacent to such output face.
