A laser system may include a solid-state laser gain material (LGM) module.
The system may also include a multi-pass resonator including a plurality
of relay mirrors. The plurality of mirrors may be grouped at least in
pairs. A first mirror of each pair of relay mirrors may be positioned to
cause a laser beam from the LGM module incident on the first mirror to be
reflected to the second mirror, and the second mirror may be positioned
to reflect the laser beam back to the LGM module for further
amplification. The multi-pass resonator may be configured to provide a
high-quality laser beam in the fundamental mode.
