Non-reciprocal effects in spatially inhomogeneous, nonlinear media

  • Published:
Journal of Russian Laser Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The possibility of non-reciprocal effects developing in a ring laser with a cavity that includes spatially inhomogeneous, nonlinear elements is analyzed. The occurrence of non-reciprocal effects in intracavity generation of the second harmonic and stimulated Raman scattering is considered.
