摘要：

Phase conjugation by nonlinear mixing using local gain saturation of a Nd: YAG laser has been demonstrated. Since the laser itself is used as a nonlinear conjugator, no additional nonlinear medium is needed. In principle, any laser can be used for this purpose since laser gain saturation is inherent to all lasers. The maximum conversion efficiency measured was 0.1%.
