Abstract

In this paper, we present the effects of a phase-conjugate mirror when used as mirror of a laser resonator with a waveguiding configuration. Simulations are based on the beam-propagation method. A strong asymmetric behavior of the beams traveling in opposite directions in PCM semiconductor laser cavities is reported and a physical description of the phenomenon is given.
