Nonlinear optics

nonlinear generation of a light wave whose wavefront is the time reverse of an incident wave, so it retraces its path and undoes distortions.

In nonlinear optics, optical phase conjugation refers to nonlinear generation of a light wave whose wavefront is the time reverse of an incident wave, so it retraces its path and undoes distortions. This meaning comes from Hellwarth (1977) in Journal of the Optical Society of America.[1]
