A cone laser-gain module (20, 20A, 20B, 20C, 20D, 20H, 20J) including a pump-light source (100), a laser rod (300), and a cone structure (400), is provided. The cone structure (400), including a large and a small cone aperture connected by cone axis (CA), is configured to accommodate the laser rod (300) parallel to the cone axis (CA) and concentrate the pump light (SL, SL’) toward the laser rod (300). The pump light (SL, SL’) enters the cone structure (400) from a large cone aperture. The laser rod (300) is configured to absorb the pump lights (SL, SL’) to generate amplified laser light (AL) along a laser-emission axis (LEA) parallel to the laser-rod axis. In particular, the pump lights (SL’), some of which diverge and initially miss the laser rod (300), are reflected and concentrated on the laser rod (300) by an inner surface (400S4) of the cone structure (400). |
