• Abstract: We introduce a proposal to prepare spin-obit maximally discordant mixed states by a linear optical circuit, with quantum bits (qubits) encoded in the polarization and transverse mode degrees of freedom of photons. In particular, we discuss how to prepare non-balanced spin-orbit entangled states, applying this technique to obtain maximally discordant mixed states. We present a simulation of the optical circuit by using the Jones matrix formalism. We performed a study of entanglement, classical and quantum correlations. The results show excellent agreement with the underlying theory and open a new experimental approach for addressing quantum correlations in optical setups.

  We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide.

We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.
