Abstract

We report the first known demonstration of UV phase conjugation. By use of a 15-psec, 2660-A pulse, 0.1% conjugate reflectivities were obtained through degenerate four-wave mixing in 1-mm samples of CS(2) mixtures. Although pure CS(2) did not exhibit the effect, dilution of CS(2) in several UV-transmitting solvents opened up a concentration- tunable (2450-2850 A) spectral window, allowing the optical Kerr effect to be utilized. Weaker phase conjugation at 2660 A was also observed in other Kerr media and in saturable absorber media.
