    • 摘要: 为实现全Stokes矢量的高精度测量,提出一种双弹光调制器(photoelectric modulator, PEM)的互差频调制全Stokes矢量测量方法。利用两种不同频率的PEM对入射光进行差频调制,被测偏振矢量与PEM相位延迟幅值同时被调制在不同的差频分量中。通过奇次差频分量相除操作,可实时获得PEM相位延迟幅值。结合不同差频分量,精确获得被测光Stokes矢量。该方法可减小PEM测量系统中相位延迟幅值波动引入的误差。理论及实验分析结果显示,测得Stokes矢量方差在10−5量级,该方法将对高精度偏振测量提供支撑。

       

      Abstract: To achieve high-precision measurement of the all-Stokes vector, a mutual differential frequency modulation approach for dual photo-elastic modulators (photoelectric modulator, PEM) in all-Stokes vector measurement was proposed. The incident light was differently frequency modulated by two PEMs of different frequencies. The measured polarization vector and the phase delay amplitude of the PEM were simultaneously modulated at different differential frequency components. The phase delay amplitude of the PEM was obtained in real time by dividing the odd differential frequency components, and the Stokes vector of the measured light was accurately obtained by combining different differential frequency components. This method reduced the error introduced by the fluctuation of the phase delay amplitude in the PEM measurement system. Theoretical and experimental analyses were conducted, and the results showed that the variance of the measured Stokes vector was 10−5. This method will provide support for high-precision polarization measurement.
