Abstract

We discuss the recent developments in exploiting Quantum Optical Correlations in order to overcome the classical limits on measurement. After a general introduction to the argument, we will consider in detail some specific and emblematic protocols, and focus in particular on applications to the holometer.

Overcoming classical measurement limits through photon number correlations: an overview of a few recent results

I. R. Bechera, Alice Meda, Ivo Pietro Degiovanni +2 more

In this proceeding we discuss as quantum correlations can enhance measurements capabilities [1,2,3,6], discussing few examples as target detection in a noisy environment and holometer. The first [2] is a quantum enhanced scheme preserving a strong advantage over classical counterparts even in presence of large amount of noise and losses. Our work, inspired by [3], has been performed exploiting only photon number correlations in twin beams. Thus, for its simplicity it can find widespread use. Even more important by challenging the common believe that real application of quantum technologies is limited by fragility to noise and losses, it paves the way to their real application. Then, we describe as the same kind of correlations can find application in a completely different area of physics, i.e. in testing quantum gravity. Indeed, recently, effects in interferometers connected to noncommutativity of position variables in different directions were considered in two coupled interferometers [5], the ``holometer'' [6]. We show that the use of quantum correlated light beams could lead to significant improvements.

Entanglement and quantum correlation in photon number can be successfully applied to various quantum enhanced measurement schemes, demonstrating amazing robustness against noise and losses and unprecedented accuracy level. We describe our achievements in this field.

Recent progresses in quantum imaging real applications

We present two recent results achieved in INRIM laboratories paving the way for next future commercial use of quantum imaging techniques. The first exploits non-classical photon statistics of single nitrogen-vacancy color centers in diamond for realising super-resolution. A little more in detail we demonstrate that the measurement of high order correlation functions allows overcoming Abbe limit. The second exploits ghost imaging in a specific case of practical interest, i.e. in measuring magnetic structures in garnets.
