Correspondence: Enhancing a phase measurement by sequentially probing a solid state system

Quantum Physics 2016-06-08 v1

Abstract

In a recent paper, Liu et al. [Nat. Commun. 6:6726 (2015)] claim to perform the first room temperature entanglement-enhanced phase measurement in a solid-state system. We argue here that this claim is incorrect: their measurement is not enhanced because of the entanglement in their system, but instead the enhancement comes from the fact that the phase shift is applied twice to their state.
