Here, we present an experimentally feasible protocol for the probabilistic orthogonalisation of a pair of coherent states, independent of their amplitude and phase. In contrast to unambiguous state discrimination, a successful operation of our protocol is heralded without measuring the states. As such, they remain suitable for further manipulation and the obtained orthogonal states serve as a discretevariable basis. Therefore, our protocol doubles as a simple continuous-to-discrete variable converter, which may find application in hybrid continuous-discrete quantum information processing protocols.</jats:p>","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","intvolume":"         4","year":"2018","user_id":"49683","citation":{"chicago":"Kruse, Regina, Christine Silberhorn, and Tim Bartley. “Heralded Orthogonalisation of Coherent States and Their Conversion to Discrete-Variable Superpositions.” <i>Quantum Measurements and Quantum Metrology</i> 4, no. 1 (2018). <a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1515/qmetro-2017-0005\">https://doi.org/10.1515/qmetro-2017-0005</a>.","apa":"Kruse, R., Silberhorn, C., &#38; Bartley, T.
