The concept of optical wavefront reversing as a tool for phase aberration correction is reviewed. Presenting the fundamental and basic nature of the nonlinear interaction of light with matter leading to optical phase conjugation, a theoretical description of the photorefractive effect is given with a special emphasis on the gain of a coupling experiment and the speed of the photorefractive effect. Optical phase conjugation configurations, designs, and enhancement techniques are described and summarized comparing the possibilities and disadvantages regarding specific applications in the near infrared.
