  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We show that one can modify a multi-pass amplifier scheme to provide phase conjugate beam steering over a useful angular range. Experiments demonstrate a scalable architecture in which phase conjugate beam control provides a method for manipulating high power beams using components designed for low power operation.
