Abstract
We demonstrate an efficient dynamical amplification of phase conjugation in the gain medium of a diode-pumped solid-state laser via excitation of its relaxation oscillations. Consequently, enhancement in the modulated amplitude of the phase conjugate wave is observed with up to compared to the classical homodyne approach.
