Abstract:
The orthogonality properties of the eigenmodes of general optical resonators which have a phase conjugate mirror at one end are derived. It is shown that essentially these are biorthogonal relations as in conventional resonators, which are satisfied between the set of modes propagating in one direction around the resonator and the adjoint set of modes propagating in the reversed direction.

Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
