The efficiency of an optically pumped solid state laser is substantially improved with a controlled geometry fluorescent converter between the pump light source and the lasing medium. Fluorescent materials have the capability of absorbing broadband pumping radiation, shifting it in wavelength and re-emitting it in the absorption band of the selected solid state laser medium. Use of angular formations having the converter surface facing the laser medium reduces fluorescent light trapping within the converter due to internal reflection thereby greatly increasing the total light output of the converter and thus the efficiency of the laser.
