There is provided a rotary disk laser module including disk comprised of at least one lasing material. The disk further includes a first surface, a second surface and a gain region. The gain region contains excited lasing material and extends between the first and second surfaces. The lasing material may be excited by a pump beam directed onto the disk. A laser is generated when the gain region is brought into optical communication with a laser generator. The disk may move in order to enable various lasing functionality to the laser module. For instance, the disk may rotate, translate, or tilt to rotate the gain region, provide various quantum effects, or to enable heat transfer with a heat sink.
