International audienceWe describe both theoretically and experimentally a polarization independent interferometric adaptive photodetector based on photorefractive two-wave mixing. The configuration is based on the simultaneous recording of two independent gratings in a single photorefractive crystal. Applied to the detection of ultrasonic signals, this interferometric photodetector operates with depolarized beams issued from multimode fibers and gives a detection limit close to the ultimate
