  A linearly polarized laser beam acquires its circular polarization by
interacting with a neutrino beam for the reason that the gauge-couplings of
left-handed neutrinos are parity-violated. Based on this phenomena, we study
the oscillations of active and sterile neutrinos in short baseline neutrino
experiments. Using the total fluxes of active and sterile neutrinos in the
$3+1$ framework, we show that the rate of generating circular polarization
oscillates as a function of the distance $L$ neutrinos propagating from the
source to the detector. By measuring such oscillation, one can possibly
determine the mixing amplitudes of active and sterile neutrinos and their
squared-mass difference.
