摘要: We present a complete polarization characterization of any quantum state two orthogonal modes and give systematic measurement procedure to collect the necessary data. Full requires measurements photon number in both linear optics. In case where only photon-number difference can be determined, limited but useful is obtained. The characteristic Stokes moment profiles are given for several common states.
