Abstract
An amplifier arrangement for increasing power and energy includes a multipass cell and at least one gain medium, wherein the multipass cell has concavely curved mirrors and the gain medium is arranged within the multipass cell in such a way that the pump radiation passes through the gain medium multiple times and is absorbed by the gain medium and wherein a laser beam to be amplified passes through the gain medium, characterized in that the mirrors are designed and arranged such that a White multipass cell is formed and the pump radiation and the laser beam to be amplified have large cross-sections at the positions at which mirrors, gain media and other optical components are arranged.

An amplifier arrangement for increasing power and energy, comprising a multipass cell and at least one gain medium, wherein the multipass cell has concavely curved mirrors (736, 737, 738) and the gain medium (171-175) is arranged within the multipass cell in such a way that the pump radiation (301, 73) passes through the gain medium (171-175) multiple times and is absorbed by the gain medium (171-175) and wherein a laser beam to be amplified passes through the gain medium (171-175), characterized in that the mirrors (736, 737, 738) are designed and arranged such that a White multipass cell is formed and the pump radiation (301, 73) and the laser beam to be amplified have large cross-sections at the positions at which mirrors, gain media and other optical components are arranged.
