Super-Heisenberg Scaling Using Nonlinear Quantum Scrambling

Super-Heisenberg scaling, which scales as $N^{-\beta}$ with $\beta>1$ in terms of the number of particles $N$ or $T^{-\beta}$ in terms of the evolution time $T$, is better than Heisenberg scaling in quantum metrology. It has been proven that super-Heisenberg scaling can be achieved when the Hamiltonian of the system involves many-body interactions or the time-dependent terms. We demonstrate that nonlinear quantum scrambling facilitates the achievement of super-Heisenberg scaling $T^{-\beta}$ when the generator of the parameter is time-independent. More importantly, in dissipative systems, we can still obtain super-Heisenberg scaling in the friction model. In the optical cavity system, an exponential improvement in measurement precision over time can be achieved by combining injected external squeezing and intracavity squeezing. Our work provides an optimal method for leveraging nonlinear resources to enhance the measurement precision of the driving field.
