Abstract
The effect of self-pumped phase conjugation (SPPC) of the light beam in the inverted laser crystal (LC) by the parametric generation in the scheme with the feedback loop (FL) has been investigated in recent years. Two possibilities of SPPC (the generation of PC-wave in the resonator with the "holographic" mirror induced by mutually-coherent incident and passing through the FL pumps in the LC1 and the process caused by the simultaneous scattering of the pumping waves in the LC with the FL2) have been studied. Both of them are based on the instability of gain gratings, which occurs only in the presence of the amplitude and phase nonreciprocities of the FL.
