Abstract

We investigate phase conjugation of a laser beam aberrated by a thin random-phase screen when the wave front is incompletely sampled by the phase conjugate mirror (PCM). We derive expressions for the average intensity after a double pass of the phase screen both when the PCM is aperture limited and when it is limited by its number of spatial modes.
