Can a quantum nondemolition measurement improve the sensitivity of an atomic magnetometer?
We consider the limitations due to noise (e.g., quantum projection noise and photon shot-noise) on the sensitivity of an idealized atomic magnetometer that utilizes spin squeezing induced by a continuous quantum nondemolition measurement. Such a magnetometer measures spin precession of N atomic spins by detecting optical rotation of far-detuned light. We show that for very short measurement tim...
متن کاملSqueezed light in an optical parametric oscillator network with coherent feedback quantum control.
We present squeezing and anti-squeezing spectra of the output from a degenerate optical parametric oscillator (OPO) network arranged in different coherent quantum feedback configurations. One OPO serves as a quantum plant, the other as a quantum controller. The addition of coherent feedback enables shaping of the output squeezing spectrum of the plant, and is found to be capable of pushing the ...
متن کاملOptimal squeezing, pure states, and amplification of squeezing in resonance fluorescence
Both theoretical and experimental studies have shown that the resonance fluorescence of a driven atom can serve as a source of nonclassical light. For example, Carmichael and Walls, and Kimble and Mandel [1] predicted that the resonance fluorescence from a single two-level atom driven by a coherent laser field of low intensity would exhibit photon antibunching. The prediction has been confirmed...
متن کاملQuantum-enhanced Optical Magnetometer Using Squeezed Light in Atomic Vapor
We have built an optical magnetometer based on the nonlinear Faraday effect in hot Rb vapor and probe this device with both coherent light and polarization-squeezed light. We generate the squeezed light states using the polarization self-rotation effect in Rb vapor, optimized for the highest noise suppression, giving us a system which is allatomic. By probing with polarization-squeezed states o...
متن کاملMeasurement Sensitivity Improvement of All-Optical Atomic Spin Magnetometer by Suppressing Noises
Quantum manipulation technology and photoelectric detection technology have jointly facilitated the rapid development of ultra-sensitive atomic spin magnetometers. To improve the output signal and sensitivity of the spin-exchange-relaxation-free (SERF) atomic spin magnetometer, the noises influencing on the output signal and the sensitivity were analyzed, and the corresponding noise suppression...
