Multicolor passive (self-pumped) phase conjugation

Abstract
Passive phase conjugation of up to six lines (457, 476, 488, 496, 501, and 514 nm) of the all lines output of an argon ion laser is reported. Imaging characteristics and reflectivity measurements are given. In general, multiline operation results in some loss in both reflectivity and image resolution. This work opens the possibility for passive phase conjugation of full color images.
