title: polarization sensitivity of the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror.
abstract: A detalled investigation of the coupled dynamlcs of the copropagatlng and counterpropagatlng polarlzation states in the optical loop fiber of a nonlinear amplifying loop mirror is performed Analysis of the dynamlcs yields evidence for the existence of a polarization-insensitive cofiguration of the device.
