Optimal Quantum Phase Estimation
Open accessAbstract
By using a systematic optimization approach, we determine quantum states of light with definite photon number leading to the best possible precision in optical two-mode interferometry. Our treatment takes into account the experimentally relevant situation of photon losses. Our results thus reveal the benchmark for precision in optical interferometry. Although this boundary is generally worse than the Heisenberg limit, we show that the obtained precision beats the standard quantum limit, thus leading to a significant improvement compared to classical interferometers. We furthermore discuss alternative states and strategies to the optimized states which are easier to generate at the cost of only slightly lower precision.

“Moreover, as N grows, N-photon entangled states become increasingly sensitive to losses, as the loss of a single photon is enough to destroy all the phase information11.”

“In the presence of decoherence, the optimal input states do not have an intuitive form and the maximization of the QFI (with rising N) becomes hard even numerically202930.”

In the citing paper
“Second, as state (3) does not bear any multi-photon coherences, losses reduce the total number of photons, but leave the remaining ones unaltered. That is, total losses characterized by an overall transmissivity 0≤ η ≤1 enter as a constant multiplicative factor, simply rescaling in equation (6) the total number of photons to νNη (see Supplementary Note 1), in striking contrast to NOON states11.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
