NONLINEAR OPTICAL PROCESSES AND DEVICES: Numerical simulation of a resonator with a phase-conjugate mirror based on a Fourier phase corrector in the case of a low Fresnel number
An investigation is made of the possibility of compensation of small-scale inhomogeneities with dispersion not exceeding 1.5 rad2 in a laser resonator characterized by a Fresnel number ~ 1 when a phase-conjugate mirror is in the form of a Zernike cell. An analysis is made of the factors responsible for reduction in the quality of compensation of distortions.
