Abstract

A simple method to reduce the polarization mixing in a two-beam interferometer is proposed. A small separation angle Wollaston prism and an optical wedge were added to the conventional heterodyne setup. It was experimentally demonstrated that the polarization mixing error was reduced below 52.4 mrad by this method.
