We introduce a super-sensitive phase measurement technique that yields the Heisenberg limit without using either a squeezed state or a many-particle entangled state. Instead, we use a many-particle separable quantum state to probe the phase…
The precision of quantum metrology is widely believed to be restricted by the Heisenberg limit, corresponding to a root mean square error that is inversely proportional to the number of independent processes probed in an experiment, N. In…
Photonic states with large and fixed photon numbers, such as Fock states, enable quantum-enhanced metrology but remain an experimentally elusive resource. A potentially simple, deterministic and scalable way to generate these states…
Quantum metrology studies the use of entanglement and other quantum resources to improve precision measurement. An interferometer using N independent particles to measure a parameter X can achieve at best the "standard quantum limit" (SQL)…
The ultimate sensitivity of optical measurements is a key element of many recent works. Classically, it is mainly limited by the shot noise limit. However, a measurement setup that incorporates quantum mechanical principles can surpass the…
Two mode squeezed states can be used to achieve Heisenberg limit scaling in interferometry: a phase shift of $\delta \phi \approx 2.76 / < N >$ can be resolved. The proposed scheme relies on balanced homodyne detection and can be…
Two-mode interferometers, such as Michelson interferometer based on two spatial optical modes, lay the foundations for quantum metrology. Instead of exploring quantum entanglement in the two-mode interferometers, a single bosonic mode also…
The strong and collective atom-light interactions in cavity-QED systems perform manifold benefits in quantum-enhanced measurements. Here, we study the time-reversal protocol that has been proposed to sense small displacements of the light…
By considering matter wave bright solitons from weakly coupled Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in a double-well potential, we study the formation of macroscopic non-classical states, including Schr\"odinger-cat superposition states and…
The use of quantum resources can provide measurement precision beyond the shot-noise limit (SNL). The task of ab initio optical phase measurement---the estimation of a completely unknown phase---has been experimentally demonstrated with…
We calculate the field eigenmodes of the superradiant emission from an ensemble of $N$ two-level atoms. While numerical techniques are effective due to the symmetry of the problem, we develop also an analytical method to approximates the…
We investigate the thermodynamic limit of Dicke superradiance. We find an expression for the system's density matrix that we can prove is exact in the limit of large atom numbers N. This is in contrast to previously known solutions whose…
The Heisenberg limit is the superior precision available by entanglement sensors. However, entanglementis fragile against dephasing, and there is no known quantum metrology protocol that can achieve Heisenberg limited sensitivity with the…
Discharge and electron-impact excitation lead to the production of metastable helium atoms in two metastable states, 2$^1$S$_0$ and 2$^3$S$_1$. However, many applications require pure beams of one of these species or at least a detailed…
In quantum precision metrology, the famous result of Heisenberg limit scaling as $1/N$ (with $N$ the number of probes) can be surpassed by considering nonlinear coupling measurement. In this work, we consider the most practice-relevant…
Indefinite causal orders have been shown to enable a precision of inverse square N in quantum parameter estimation, where N is the number of independent processes probed in an experiment. This surpasses the widely accepted ultimate quantum…
Quantum metrology enables parameter estimation beyond classical limits by exploiting nonclassical resources such as squeezing and entanglement. In distributed quantum sensing, Heisenberg scaling has been extended from $1/N^2$ to $1/(NM)^2$…
In a seminal paper [8] it was shown that Heisenberg-limited measurements could be achieved without using entangled states by coupling the quantum resources to a common environment that could be measured, at least, in part. The authors also…
The problem of light propagation of frequency corresponding to half of the energy difference between a metastable excited state and the ground state of atoms is examined, and solved for coherent medium by analytic means. We demonstrate that…
In this paper we explore the possibility of performing Heisenberg limited quantum metrology of a phase, without any prior, by employing only maximally entangled states. Starting from the estimator introduced by Higgins et al. in New J.…
