Quantum optical formulation of difference-frequency generation and optimal cloning of spatial modes

We present a quantum optical formulation of difference-frequency generation (DFG) that incorporates the spatial modes of light. It reproduces the well established result for classical light beams and establishes the relation of DFG to stimulated and spontaneous parametric downconversion. As shown here, these relations determine that stimulated parametric down-conversion can realise $N\xrightarrow{} M $ $d$-dimensional optimal quantum cloning.

Deterministic preparation of optical qubits with coherent feedback control

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.
