Abstract

Rotation measurements underlie many physical tasks. Specially-designed quantum states dramatically enhance sensitivities when simultaneously estimating multiple rotation parameters. Creating and detecting these states enables useful quantum devices.

Quantum-enhanced rotation measurements about unknown axes

Aaron Z. Goldberg, Daniel F. V. James

Precise rotation measurements have broad applications. Some quantum states dramatically enhance sensitivities in estimating rotation angles around known axes. We present states that increase sensitivities in estimating both the orientation of an unknown rotation axis and the angle rotated about it.

Rotation sensing at the ultimate limit

Aaron Z. Goldberg, A. B. Klimov, Gerd Leuchs +1 more

Abstract Conventional classical sensors are approaching their maximum sensitivity levels in many areas. Yet these levels are still far from the ultimate limits dictated by quantum mechanics. Quantum sensors promise a substantial step ahead by taking advantage of the salient sensitivity of quantum states to the environment. Here, we focus on sensing rotations, a topic of broad application. By resorting to the basic tools of estimation theory, we derive states that achieve the ultimate sensitivities in estimating both the orientation of an unknown rotation axis and the angle rotated about it. The critical enhancement obtained with these optimal states should make of them an indispensable ingredient in the next generation of rotation sensors that is now blossoming.

Quantum-enhanced multiparameter estimation in multiarm interferometers

Mario Arnolfo Ciampini, Nicolò Spagnolo, Chiara Vitelli +3 more

Quantum metrology is the state-of-the-art measurement technology. It uses quantum resources to enhance the sensitivity of phase estimation over that achievable by classical physics. While single parameter estimation theory has been widely investigated, much less is known about the simultaneous estimation of multiple phases, which finds key applications in imaging and sensing. In this manuscript we provide conditions of useful particle (qudit) entanglement for multiphase estimation and adapt them to multiarm Mach-Zehnder interferometry. We theoretically discuss benchmark multimode Fock states containing useful qudit entanglement and overcoming the sensitivity of separable qudit states in three and four arm Mach-Zehnder-like interferometers - currently within the reach of integrated photonics technology.

Quantum-enhanced multiparameter estimation in multiarm interferometers

Mario Arnolfo Ciampini, Nicolò Spagnolo, Chiara Vitelli +3 more

Quantum metrology is the state-of-the-art measurement technology. It uses quantum resources to enhance the sensitivity of phase estimation beyond what reachable within classical physics. While single parameter estimation theory has been widely investigated, much less is known about the simultaneous estimation of multiple phases, which finds key applications in imaging and sensing. In this manuscript we provide conditions of useful entanglement (among multimode particles, qudits) for multiphase estimation and adapt them to multiarm Mach-Zehnder interferometry. We discuss benchmark multimode Fock states containing useful qudit entanglement and overcoming the sensitivity of separable qudit states in three and four arm Mach-Zehnder-like interferometers - currently within the reach of integrated photonics technology.
