• Title: Deterministic preparation of optical qubits with coherent feedback control
• Abstract summary: We propose a class of preparation schemes for orbital angular momentum and polarisation qubits carried by single photons or classical states of light. The preparation methods use linear optics and include the transcription of an arbitrary polarisation state onto a two-level OAM system. We show how to translate measurement-based qubit control channels into coherent feedback schemes for optical implementation.

• Abstract: We propose a class of preparation schemes for orbital angular momentum and polarisation qubits carried by single photons or classical states of light based on coherent feedback control by an ancillary degree of freedom of light. The preparation methods use linear optics and include the transcription of an arbitrary polarisation state onto a two-level OAM system (swap) for arbitrary OAM values plus/minus "l" within a light beam, i.e. without spatial interferometer. The preparations can be carried out with unit efficiency independent from the potentially unknown initial state of the system. Moreover, we show how to translate measurement-based qubit control channels into coherent feedback schemes for optical implementation.

  We generate arbitrary non-separable states of light using polarization and orbital angular momentum (OAM) degrees of freedom. We observe the intensity distribution corresponding to OAM modes of the light beam by projecting the non-separable state into different polarization states. This classical non-separability can be easily transferred to the quantum domain.

We generate highly entangled photon pairs at telecom wavelength that we characterise via two-photon interference and quantum state tomography, achieving near-unity visibilities and fidelities.
