Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2184818A1] The arrangement has an optical coupling unit (2) provided between a laser-pump source (1) and a homogenizer (3). The optical coupling unit is designed such that partial pump radiations are projected or focused directly on or in a laser radiation-amplifying laser medium (4) in a projection direction perpendicular to a through-mixing direction (DA). The homogenizer and the laser medium are designed such that a pump beam emergent from the homogenizer are directly guided on or into the laser medium under beam spread angle preservation for the through-mixing direction. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a laser system comprising a resonator for amplifying laser radiation (2) a laser pump method for generating elliptical pump geometry for a laser radiation-amplifying laser medium.
