Abstract
Most demonstrations of the correction of phase distortions by phase conjugation involve linearly polarized light and optically isotropic phase distorting media. In some cases, however, one may also wish to correct for the changes in polarization induced by optically anisotropic phase distorting media. In general, the reflectivity of a phase conjugate mirror is described by a tensor that determines the amplitude and polarization state of the reflected light.
