A polarizer with high reflectivity for the s-polarized light at the laser wavelength is employed to achieve a linearly polarized laser. In the same case of resonator length, the corner cube can be used to cut the volume of the Ho：YAG laser and to enhance the stability of the system. The maximum linearly polarized output power of 5.8 W is achieved at the absorbed pump power of 23.3 W, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 29.7%, and the optical-optical conversion efficiency is around 24.9%.
