ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method of photolithography with phase conjugate optics having a pump nonlinear medium for producing four way mixing of a beam of coherent electromagnetic radiation incident to said nonlinear medium with a spatically modulated representation of image thereon. The nonlinear medium producing by the phenomenon of four way mixing. A phase conjugated beam having a representation of the image spatically amplitude modulated thereon. The phase conjugated beam is directed toward a surface sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.
