Abstract

In a longitudinal flexible composite optical medium (3) for use in a laser device, the longitudinal flexible composite optical medium includes a laser beam guide portion (1) containing a laser active material (11) and an excitation beam guide portion (2) for distributing and introducing an excitation beam into the laser beam guide portion. The laser beam guide portion and the excitation beam guide portion are uncoaxially arranged in parallel to each other and integrally coupled with each other. By winding or folding the composite optical medium, a laser structure of a predetermined shape is obtained.
