Single-loop interferometer for minimal ellipsometry

Abstract

We present a simple polarizing Mach-Zehnder interferometer that can be used for optimal minimal ellipsometry: Only four intensities are measured to determine the three Stokes parameters, and an optimal choice for the four polarization projections can be achieved for any sufficiently small wavelength range of interest.
