Optical integration of a real-valued function by measurement of a Stokes parameter

Lemos, G. B.; Souto Ribeiro, P. H.; Walborn, S. P.

Abstract

We experimentally implement an optical algorithm for integration of a real-valued bivariate function. A user-defined function is encoded in the position-dependent phase of one of the polarization components of an optical beam. The integral of this function is retrieved by measuring a Stokes parameter of the polarization. We analyze the performance of the system as an integration device. (c) 2014 Optical Society of America
