Abstract
Phase conjugation process at intracavity degenerate four wave mixing of long pulse CO2 laser radiation in its active medium has been studied experimentally. Parametric dependencies of energetic and temporal characteristics of phase conjugation signal are analyzed. Phase conjugation reflectivity comes up to 7.5 - 10%. A periodical dependency of the reflectivity on optical delay with a period of approximately 10-1 and 10-3 cm has been observed.
