Abstract
By performing a pre-selection, an optically-induced unitary transformation, and then a postselection on the polarization degree of freedom, the phase of the output beam acquires either a zero or π phase shift. The scheme is experimentally demonstrated using a coherently prepared dark-state in a warm atomic cesium vapor.
