Abstract: The nonreciprocity of the characteristics of counterpropagating waves in a ring resonator formed by totally reflecting prisms is analysed. The polarisation-inhomogeneous properties of a prism resonator and their effect on the nonreciprocity of the frequencies of counterpropagating waves are studied.
