A simple implementation of a multipass amplifier along with the use of a cryogenic Yb:LiYF4 (YLF) gain medium has enabled the demonstration of a bulk amplifier with an unprecedented combination of large-signal gain (43 dB), efficiency (>50% optical), average output power (40 W) and a near-diffraction-limited output beam.
