Abstract

We have investigated the use of the phase-conjugate Brillouin mirror to establish several types of phase-conjugate laser resonators. One simple but effective design is illustrated in Fig. ThAA5-1a) together with its experimentally observed cavity flux in Fig. ThAA5-1b). Radiation from a single-mode ruby laser is amplified and injected into a waveguide containing a Brillouin-active gas (CH4). The ruby pulses are phase conjugated, and oscillation occurs between the Brillouin reflector and the ruby oscillator output mirror with gain provided by the ruby amplifier.
