Polarization-squeezed light and quantum degree of polarization (A review)

A. S. Chirkin

A brief review of theoretical studies of the quantum state of polarization of light exhibiting the level of fluctuations in at least one of the Stokes parameters which is below the quantum noise limit is presented. Two approaches to generation of polarization-squeezed state of light are analyzed in detail: by propagating coherent radiation in a cubic nonlinear medium and by mixing radiation of two orthogonally polarized quadrature-squeezed modes. The degree of polarization of light is discussed. Other areas of quantum polarization optics, in particular, entanglement of quantum Stokes parameters and quantum polarization tomography, are also discussed.

Polarization-squeezed light: generation, effects of partial polarization, and linear and nonlinear conversion

Anatoliy S. Chirkin, Natalia Korolkova

We consider polarization-squeezed (PS) light generation in anisotropic homogeneous Kerr medium. The fluctuations of the Stokes parameter either S2 or S3 are suppressed in PS light. The influence of initial light depolarization on the fluctuation suppression of the Stokes parameters is analyzed. We show the possibility to transform PS light into light with sub-Poissonian statistics by linear conversion (phase plate and analyzer). The quantum properties of the SH generated by frequency doubling of the PS light are investigated.

Quantum polarimeter for measurement of nonclassical polarization states of light

A. P. Alodjants, A. Yu. Leksin, Sergei M Arakelyan

In our paper we consider the behavior of both the Hermitian (observable) Stokes parameters of light and the phases difference that describes the polarization state of optical field. In general case we introduce two pairs of phase operators associated with the phase angles in 3D picture for the polarization Stokes parameters of light on the Poincare sphere. The special eight-port polarization interferometer is presented for simultaneous homodyne detection of both the Stokes parameters of light and the polarization phases and also of their fluctuations. It is shown that an anisotropic (spatio-periodically) Kerr-like nonlinear medium placed in the polarization interferometer can be used for generation and observation of the polarization-squeezed phase states of light.
