Abstract

Recently the importance of the interference effect due to disorder has come to be recognized in nonlinear optics. As is generally known, the constructive interference effect enhances the strength of the backward scattering wave, which corresponds in nonlinear optics to the phase conjugated wave^[1]. Under the resonant pumping of Frenkel excitons in disordered system, we investigate theoretically the effect of randomness on the nonlinear polarization which generates the phase-conjugated wave.
