Double-phase conjugate mirror in nominally undoped Sn2P2S6

Opt Lett. 2009 Mar 15;34(6):734-6. doi: 10.1364/ol.34.000734.

Abstract

Coherent oscillation is achieved in the geometry of a double-phase conjugate mirror in nominally undoped Sn2P2S6 with 647 nm radiation of a Kr+ laser. The specific temporal dynamics of oscillation with modulated intensity and periodic 0-pi-0-pi variations of the oscillation wave phase is similar to that observed earlier using a semilinear oscillator geometry. The described oscillator ensures submillisecond delay time in the appearance of the phase conjugate wave.
