Abstract

In the present manuscript, we demonstrate the potential to control and enhance the accuracy of parameter estimation (P-E) in a two-level atom (TLA) immersed in a cavity field that interacts with another cavity. We investigate the dynamics of quantum Fisher information (FI), considering the influence of coupling strength between the two cavities and the detuning parameter. Our findings reveal that, in the case of a perfect cavity, a high quantum FI value can be maintained during the dynamics concerning the detuning and coupling strength parameters. The results indicate that with a proper choice of quantum model parameters, long-term protection of the FI can be achieved without being affected by decoherence.

Environmental parameter estimation with the two-level atom probes

Mengmeng Luo, Wenxiao Liu, Yuetao Chen +2 more

A novel scheme is proposed to estimate three environmental parameters, the detuning, the temperature and the squeezing strength with one-qubit or two-qubit probes. Quantum Fisher information and the fidelity of the atom probes are calculated. When the detuning between the frequency of cavity field and the atomic transition frequency is estimated, the dynamics of quantum Fisher information shows oscillatory and rising behaviors. To estimate the temperature of the thermal reservoir, the one-qubit probe with the superposition initial state is more favorable than the two-qubit probe with the entangled initial state. When the squeezing strength of the squeezed vacuum reservoir is estimated, we find that the estimation precision is significantly improved by utilizing the two-qubit probe with the maximal entangled initial state. Our work provides a potential application in the open quantum system and quantum information processing.

Quantum Fisher Information Dynamics in Squeezed Reservoirs: Mathematical Insights and Quantum Applications

Kamal Barrada

This work explores the dynamics of quantum Fisher information (QFI) in open quantum systems coupled to squeezed reservoirs, providing a mathematical framework for analyzing parameter estimation precision under decoherence. We analyze QFI in two-qubit systems undergoing pure dephasing, considering the effects of squeezing parameter, phase difference, and coupling strength within an Ohmic spectral density model. The decoherence factor shows how reservoir engineering influences coherence loss. Numerical results demonstrate that optimal squeezing and local bath configurations enhance QFI preservation, while collective couplings accelerate decay. We also examine the interplay with von Neumann entropy, highlighting their inverse correlation, where increased mixedness reduces metrological sensitivity.

Optimal quantum parameter estimation of two interacting qubits under decoherence

Qiang Zheng, Yao Yao, Yong Li

We investigate the parameter estimation problem in a two-qubit system, in which each qubit is independently interacting with its Markovian environment. We study in detail the sensitivity of the estimation on the decoherence rate $γ$ and the two-qubit interaction strength $v$. In particular, the dynamics of quantum Fisher information are employed as a measure to quantify the precision of the estimations. We find that the quantum Fisher information with respect to the decoherence rate scales like $t^2/[\exp(γt)-1]$ and $\exp(-2γt)$ in the unitary limit and the completely decoherent limit, respectively. When we estimate the interaction strength $v$, the quantum Fisher information shows oscillation behavior in term of time. In addition, our results provide further evidence that the entanglement of the input state may not enhance quantum metrology.

Enhancing precision of phase estimation by homodyne-mediated feedback and classical driving

Yaohua Hu, Leiming Cao, Haifeng Yang +2 more

Abstract A two-level atom interacting with a single-mode cavity is considered. The atom-cavity system is driven by a classical field with the homodyne-mediated feedback. The influences of the driving field and two types of the feedback on the precision of the phase estimation are investigated. The results show the quantum Fisher information (QFI) can be preserved by the homodyne-mediated feedback and the classical driving when the system parameters are suitable. In addition, the initial value of the relative phase greatly effects the QFI. Therefore, the phase estimation precision of the two-level atom can be enhanced, and the extent of the enhancement is decided by not only the driving frequency and the type of quantum feedback, but also the initial parameters of the two-level system.

Relativistic Quantum Metrology in Open System Dynamics

Zehua Tian, Jieci Wang, Heng Fan +1 more

Quantum metrology studies the ultimate limit of precision in estimating a physical quantity if quantum strategies are exploited. Here we investigate the evolution of a two-level atom as a detector which interacts with a massless scalar field using the master equation approach for open quantum system. We employ local quantum estimation theory to estimate the Unruh temperature when probed by a uniformly accelerated detector in the Minkowski vacuum. In particular, we evaluate the Fisher information (FI) for population measurement, maximize its value over all possible detector preparations and evolution times, and compare its behavior with that of the quantum Fisher information (QFI). We find that the optimal precision of estimation is achieved when the detector evolves for a long enough time. Furthermore, we find that in this case the FI for population measurement is independent of initial preparations of the detector and is exactly equal to the QFI, which means that population measurement is optimal. This result demonstrates that the achievement of the ultimate bound of precision imposed by quantum mechanics is possible. Finally, we note that the same configuration is also available to the maximum of the QFI itself.
