Abstract :
We have developed a new kind of phase conjugators consisting of multimode quartz fibers with core diameters of 25 to 400 μm. Such fiber phase conjugators were characterized for different lengths in respect of the phase conjugating parameters like threshold, reflectivity, and fidelity. Dependencies of all SBS parameters on the fiber length and on the coherence length of the input beams were determined
