Quantum measurement of the degree of polarization of a light beam
M. Legre, M. Wegmuller, N. Gisin
abstract: We demonstrate a coherent quantum measurement for the determination of the
degree of polarization (DOP). This method allows to measure the DOP in the
presence of fast polarization state fluctuations, difficult to achieve with the
typically used polarimetric technique. A good precision of the DOP measurements
is obtained using 8 type II nonlinear crystals assembled for spatial walk-off
compensation.
