ABSTRACT:
A heat sink for slab lasers has two heat conductive members. Each heat conductive member has a generally planar surface and is configured such that a solid state laser medium is disposable therebetween while contacting the planar surfaces thereof. There is at least one window formed in at least one of the heat conductive members for facilitating pumping of the solid state laser medium. The two heat conductive members cause heat to be removed from the solid state laser medium in a manner which mitigates thermal focusing and depolarization of laser radiation stimulated within the solid state laser medium.
