Abstract
The evolution of quantum fluctuations of the quadrature components, the number of photons and the Stokes parameters of fundamental radiation that excites the second harmonic in interaction of type II is considered. Special attention is given to the variances of the Stokes parameters of the fundamental radiation. It is shown that the fluctuations of three Stokes parameters decrease and those of the fourth Stokes parameter increase in comparison with the fluctuations for the case of coherent radiation.
