A slab laser and its method of use for high power applications including the manufacture of semiconductors and deposition of diamond and/or diamond-like-carbon layers, among other materials. A lamp driven slab design with a face-to-face beam propagation scheme and an end reflection that redirects the amplified radiation back out the same input surface is utilized. A side-to-side amplifier configuration permitting very high average and peak powers having scalability is also disclosed. Cavity filters adjacent to pump lamps convert the normally unusable UV portion of the pump lamp spectrum into light in the absorption band of the slab laser, thereby increasing the overall pump efficiency. The angle of the end reflecting surface is changed to cause the exit beam to be at a different angle than the inlet beam, thereby eliminating the costly need to separate the beams external to the laser with the subsequent loss of power.

A frequency-doubled OPS-laser having a desired output wavelength of 532 nm is tunable about that wavelength by a temperature tuned birefringent filter (BRF). The temperature of the BRF is varied while measuring transmission of a sample of the output through a Nd:YAG crystal having an absorption peak at a wavelength of about 532.4 nm. The peak is detected as a minimum of transmission and the temperature at which that minimum occurs is recorded. From wavelength-change-versus-temperature data for the BRF a temperature is calculated at which the output wavelength has the desired value and is maintained at that value to stabilize the output wavelength.

A master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) laser system includes a symmetrical master oscillator and an amplifier each having an optically pumped solid-state gain rod. An optical relay is located between the laser resonator and the amplifier gain rod. When the oscillator and amplifier gain media are equally optically pumped, the magnification and the distances from the optical relay to the resonator and the amplifier gain rod can be selected such that amplifier efficiency is maximized, independent of optical pump power, even if the diameters of the oscillator and amplifier gain rods are different.
