A thin-disk laser (sometimes called a thin-disk laser or active-mirror laser) is a special type of diode-pumped high-power solid-state laser that was introduced in the 1990s by Adolf Giesen's research group at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. It differs from conventional rod or slab lasers primarily in the geometry of the gain medium: the laser crystal is a thin disk whose thickness is much smaller than the laser beam diameter. The generated heat is extracted primarily via one end facet, i.e. in the longitudinal direction rather than in the transverse direction. The cooled end facet has a dielectric coating that reflects both the laser radiation and the pump radiation. The thin-disk is also often referred to as an active mirror, since it acts as a mirror with laser gain. Within a laser resonator, it can act as an end mirror or a folding mirror. In the latter case, the laser radiation passes through the resonator twice per round trip, so that the gain per round trip is doubled and the threshold pump power is reduced. Thin-disk lasers should not be confused with spinning-disk lasers, where the gain medium is a rapidly rotating disk that is typically a few millimeters thick.
The global market for Thin-Disk Lasers was estimated to be worth US$ 350 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 724 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 11.0% during the forecast period 2024-2030.
