Acousto-optically induced unidirectional operation of a ring laser a feedback mechanism

A second mechanism for acousto-optically induced unidirectional operation of a ring laser has been identified and demonstrated experimentally. The mechanism involves feeding back the diffracted wave thus restoring to its original frequency and direction via a second diffraction from the travelling-w...
