Abstract
A resonator assembly particularly suited for a diode pumped solid state laser is disclosed. The assembly includes a glass planar support plate 20. At least two transparent mirror mounts 26, 28 are bonded to the plate using a UV curable adhesive. The resonator mirros 22, 24 are in turn bonded to the mounts using a similar adhesive. The structure is easy to align and assemble and is low in cost. In addition, the assembly can be formed from materials having a low coefficient of thermal expansion so that the thermal stability is enhanced. Further, the transparent mirror mounts provide enhanced stability while allowing transmission of laser radiation.
