摘要：

A unitary operator representing the exponential of the phase difference between two modes of the electromagnetic field is introduced. The eigenvalue spectrum has a discrete character that is analyzed. This operator is related with a suitable polar decomposition of the Stokes parameters of the field. The cases of weakly and highly excited states are considered, discussing to what extent it is possible to talk about the phase for a single-mode field.
