Abstract

The image-formation process in polychromatic phase conjugation is examined. The image-size reducing (or enlarging) property is discussed, and the spatial-filtering characteristics are developed, showing that a narrow-bandpass filter can be made with this technique. Possible applications involving frequency conversion of images from the infrared to the visual part of the spectrum are also discussed briefly.
