10. The effects of partial coherence on phase conjugation were recently discussed in X. Yi and P. Yeh, Opt. Commun. 147, 126 (1998). The investigations in that paper, however, concern specific effects caused by the temporal coherence of the incident beam, not the spectral degree of coherence, which we are concerned with.
