Ultimate Precision Bound of Quantum and Subwavelength Imaging.
We determine the ultimate potential of quantum imaging for boosting the resolution of a far-field, diffraction-limited, linear imaging device within the paraxial approximation. First, we show that the problem of estimating the separation between two pointlike sources is equivalent to the estimation of the loss parameters of two lossy bosonic channels, i.e., the transmissivities of two beam spli...
متن کاملFar-Field Superresolution of Thermal Electromagnetic Sources at the Quantum Limit.
We obtain the ultimate quantum limit for estimating the transverse separation of two thermal point sources using a given imaging system with limited spatial bandwidth. We show via the quantum Cramér-Rao bound that, contrary to the Rayleigh limit in conventional direct imaging, quantum mechanics does not mandate any loss of precision in estimating even deep sub-Rayleigh separations. We propose t...
متن کاملQuantum Super-resolution
One can locate incoherent sources of light even when they are very close together within an error bound. This thesis contributes to knowledge by presenting progress towards experimentally realising the super-resolution of two incoherent point sources of light, using Fisher information gleaned through image-inversion interferometry measurements. The diffraction limit has been a limiting construc...

Article history: Received 20 April 2010 Received in revised form 15 July 2010 Accepted 26 July 2010 Available online 3 August 2010 Communicated by P.R. Holland Using multiphoton entangled states, we demonstrate improving spatial imaging resolution beyond the Rayleigh diffraction limit in the quantum imaging process. In particular, we examine resolution enhancement using triphoton W state and a ...
متن کاملQuantum imaging beyond the diffraction limit by optical centroid measurements.
I propose a quantum imaging method that can beat the Rayleigh-Abbe diffraction limit and achieve de Broglie resolution without requiring a multiphoton absorber or coincidence detection. Using the same nonclassical states of light as those for quantum lithography, the proposed method requires only optical intensity measurements, followed by image postprocessing, to produce the same complex quant...
