Abstract

Self-oscillation of cavities closed by phase-conjugate mirrors has been observed with solids,1 liquids,2 and vapors.3 The case of vapors is particularly interesting because the nonlinearities are well known, and precise comparison between theory and experiments is possible. Furthermore, because of the huge nonlinearity close to a resonance transition, high reflectivities are obtained even with cw lasers.4 At last, the time response of the medium is expected to be of the order of the lifetime of the excited level.
