Abstract:
An analysis is made of the propagation of an optical wave parallel to reflecting planes in an extended nonlinear Fabry-Perot interferometer pumped by a strong wave of the same intensity. It is shown that the nonlinear-optics self-interaction of the first wave changes drastically near certain parts of the main experimental characteristic of the interferometer, which is the dependence of the intensity of the transmitted light on the intensity of the pump wave. The acoustooptic interaction can change similarly in this interferometer.
