Abstract
In this paper, the orthogonal properties of the eigenmodes of optical resonators which have phase conjugate mirrors at both ends are derived. The modes which propagate in resonators are descdribed by the Huygens integral. Then, the eigeneuqation which is needed in order to prove the orthogonality of the eigenmodes of the resonator is obtained from this representation. When the kernel being a part of the eigenequation is Hermitian as in conventional resonators and in optical resonator with only one phase conjugate mirror, one can show that the eigenmodes have essentially biorthogonal relations, which are satisfied the set of modes propagating in one direcdtion around the resonator and the adjoint set of modes propagating in the reversed direction.
