Abstract: A phase conjugate interferometer for combining first and second two dimensional images includes a source of coherent light and a first beam splitter for dividing the coherent light into a transmitted beam and a reflected pump beam. A second beam splitter divides the transmitted beam into a reflected first probe beam which traverses a first image transparency and a transmitted second probe beam which traverses a second image transparency.

Abstract: A phase conjugate interferometer includes a source of coherent light and a first beam splitter for dividing the coherent light into a transmitted portion and a reflected portion. A second beam splitter is positioned to divide the transmitted portion into an outgoing transmitted beam and an outgoing reflected beam, with the outgoing transmitted beam oriented to pass through the first image and the outgoing reflected beam oriented to pass through the second image. A phase-conjugate reflector is positioned to reflect the outgoing transmitted beam as a first incoming beam and the outgoing reflected beam as a second incoming beam. The incoming beams are directed toward the second beam splitter, which divides the incoming beams into a first combined beam and a second combined beam. The second combined beam is directed toward the first beam splitter, which divides the second combined beam into a third combined beam and a transmitted beam.
