Adaptive optics (AO) can effectively improve the beam quality of solid-state slab lasers. However, the aperture of the output beam increases as the output power of the laser increases, resulting in a larger measurement system. Ultimately, a more complex AO system needs to be designed. To meet the requirements of conjugate imaging in an AO system, it is of research significance to coordinate and optimize the system's structural dimensional parameters while enabling the detection of multiple parameters, such as the wave-front and beam quality. In this paper, a multiparameter measurement technique in a largeaperture rectangular laser beam aberration-correction system is proposed. The system layout is optimized with total dimensions of 400 mm × 150 mm × 246 mm (L × W × H). The AO system conforms to the requirements for conjugate detection and can perform wave-front detection, far-field evaluation, and near-field detection of a 160 mm × 120 mm rectangular beam produced from a solid-state slab laser. The findings reveal that the measured PV values of wave-fronts of the measurement system are less than 0.288 μm, the RMS is no more than 0.079 μm, the average far-field beam quality factor is 1.248 times the diffraction limit, and the average near-field beam uniformity is 0.533 at a temperature of 20°C ± 10°C; these results satisfy the technical parameters.
