Abstract
We report a theoretical analysis of a photonic quantum interface, which makes it possible to deterministically convert photonic qubits from subcarrier wave to polarization encoding. The interface provides unambiguous conversion of an arbitrary phase of the input signal into the corresponding polarization of the converted radiation. Possibilities of implementing this interface in an integrated optical design and its use in constructing a hybrid quantum network are discussed.
