Abstract—A PANDA ring conjugate mirror is designed for Phase Conjugate Mirror (PCM) devices with 3D usage. The design of the device parameters and optimum conditions has been improved by the four-wave mixing principle. In the design, a common laser is applied as the input light beam, in which the object beam is the reflected light beam from the throughput port, where the reference beam is the reflected light beam from the drop port of the PANDA ring. The interference of the light between these two beams can form a one pixel image, which is coupled by the two nonlinear side rings. This work has shown improvements in the effect of changing parameters such as the center and side ring radii and the coupling factors between the center and side rings. The purpose of this study was to identify optimal parameter values for the four-wave mixing phenomena leading to high image quality (optimum conditions). From the preliminary results, we have found that the optimum conditions are where the center ring radius is 2μm and the radii of the side rings are 1.05μm. The right coupling factor is 0.3 whereas the left coupling factor is 0.7. A PANDA ring conjugate mirror enables the design and fabrication of large area pixels for realistic applications.
