Description
We compare a Ho$3+:YAG laser cavity that includes two crossed Porro prisms instead of cavity end mirrors with a conventional mirror resonator. While the Porro resonator shows a slightly lower slope efficiency of 67.4 % than the mirror resonator, it is superior in terms of beam quality and stability.
