  • Abstract
    The sensitivity of phase-conjugate resonators to phase perturbations is analyzed numerically. It is shown that as long as the phase-conjugate mirror (PCM) intercepts most of the light traveling towards it, this type of resonator provides much improvement over conventional optical cavities.
