Abstract
A high-output, single fundamental transverse mode solid state laser is disclosed which uses a semiconductor laser array as an excitation light source. The solid state laser comprises: a laser element which includes a core containing an element added as a laser medium, a cladding containing no such laser medium element, and reflecting mirrors coated over the cladding surface for repeatedly reflecting incident excitation light so that it may repeatedly pass through the core; an excitation light source formed by semi-conductor laser or light emitting diode array; means for guiding the excitation light from the excitation light source to one side of the laser element for incidence thereto; and a resonator for the oscillation of the solid state laser.
