A laser gain device ( 10 ) holds a laser slab ( 60 ) which is pumped by pump energy from at least one diode array assembly ( 24 ). An angle at which pump energy from the diode array assembly ( 24 ) impinges the laser slab ( 60 ) is adjustable via angle adjustment means. The laser slab ( 60 ) is mounted between edge bars ( 62, 64 ) which have laser slab spacers ( 84 ) extending therethrough, allowing laser slabs ( 60 ) of different widths to be mounted within the laser gain device ( 10 ). One or more pump energy shields ( 88, 90 ) are used to control the amount of pump energy entering the laser slab ( 60 ), and cooling liquid conduits ( 100 ) are provided throughout components of the laser gain device ( 10 ), serving to conductively cool a heat shield ( 12 ).
