Abstract
A three-mirror system consisting of a light, movable, semitransparent mirror located inside an optical resonator of a normal mirror and a phase-conjugate mirror is theoretically analyzed. The phase-conjugate mirror is composed provided by nearly degenerate four-wave mixing in a Kerr medium. A scheme of confining the movable mirror in a mechanical potential well through radiation pressure is described, with particular attention to the resonant mode structure of the three-mirror system.
