Semiconductor-type processing for solid-state lasers
First Claim
1. A method of fabricating an optically-pumped disk-array solid-state laser amplifier having one or more disks, wherein one or more of the one or more disks have two opposed surfaces, comprising the steps of:
- patterning a photoresist mask on one or more of the two opposed surfaces of the one or more disks; and
processing the one or more disks through the patterned photoresist mask, whereby the temperature profile improves radially across the surface of the disk, amplified spontaneous emission is reduced or a combination thereof.

Abstract
The present invention includes a method of fabricating an optically-pumped disk-array solid-state laser amplifier having one or more disks, wherein one or more of the one or more disks having two opposed surfaces, including the steps of patterning a photoresist mask on one or more of the two opposed surfaces of the one or more disks and processing the one or more disks through the patterned photoresist mask, whereby the temperature profile improved radially across the disk'"'"'s surface, amplified spontaneous emission are reduced, or combinations thereof.
