The present invention describes a laser system for eliminating astigmatism to produce an elliptical laser beam that has an ellipticity between about 0.9 to 1.0. The laser system described herein allows for increased conversion efficiency and output powers. on-linear optical elements in the laser system eliminate astigmatism. The laser system comprises one or more cavities with wavelength splitters that act as dual-minor chambers for single-pass light transmission through the non-linear optical elements to reduce cavity size or as beam splitters for double-pass light transmission through the non-linear optical elements to increase laser output power. The laser system may also include a birefringent filter and/or etalon in the first cavity for polarization and wavelength tuning. The laser system may also generate a high-power, deep-ultraviolet laser output. The laser system may also be devoid of curved mirrors and non-normal incidence reflection to eliminate astigmatism.
