ABSTRACT:
A technique and apparatus employs a plurality of laser pumping emissions fed as collimated parallel beams from a multi-faceted reflective solid with highly reflective faces into a single aperture lens to concentrate all the laser pumping emissions onto a spot on the face of the laser crystal for the responsive longitudinal pumping thereof.
