Abstract

A self-pumped phase conjugate reflectivity of 74.8% is obtained with a suitably cut KNbO3:Fe crystal in a polygonal shape. The design and operation of this self-pumped phase conjugator is described. The build-up time is observed to be dependent on the input power. The phase conjugate nature of the retroreflected beam has been further confirmed by a significant decrease in the specular reflectivity of the input surface of the crystal.
