Approaching the Heisenberg Limit Without Single-Particle Detection: Supplemental Material
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In this supplement, we derive the effective one-axis twisting dynamics of an atomic ensemble coupled to a driven optical cavity [1–3]. This system has been analyzed elsewhere, but we know of no comprehensive treatment using the Lindblad master equation formalism. We also establish an equivalence between the twisting dynamics of the driven cavity scheme and the twisting dynamics of a four-photon Raman scheme proposed by Sørensen and Mølmer [4].

Approaching the Heisenberg Limit without Single-Particle Detection.
We propose an approach to quantum phase estimation that can attain precision near the Heisenberg limit without requiring single-particle-resolved state detection. We show that the "one-axis twisting" interaction, well known for generating spin squeezing in atomic ensembles, can also amplify the output signal of an entanglement-enhanced interferometer to facilitate readout. Applying this interac...
متن کاملDouble-well atom trap for fluorescence detection at the Heisenberg limit
We experimentally demonstrate an atom number detector capable of simultaneous detection of two mesoscopic ensembles with single-atom resolution. Such a sensitivity is a prerequisite for quantum metrology at a precision approaching the Heisenberg limit. Our system is based on fluorescence detection of atoms in a hybrid trap in which a dipole barrier divides a magneto-optical trap into two separa...
متن کاملApproaching the quantum limit of a nanomechanical resonator.
By coupling a single-electron transistor to a high-quality factor, 19.7-megahertz nanomechanical resonator, we demonstrate position detection approaching that set by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle limit. At millikelvin temperatures, position resolution a factor of 4.3 above the quantum limit is achieved and demonstrates the near-ideal performance of the single-electron transistor as a lin...
متن کاملParticle-number scaling of the phase sensitivity in realistic Bayesian twin-mode Heisenberg-limited interferometry
We investigate the scaling of the phase sensitivity of a nonideal Heisenberg-limited interferometer with the particle number N, in the case of the Bayesian detection procedure proposed by Holland and Burnett [Phys. Rev. Lett. 71, 1355 (1993)] for twin boson input modes. Using Monte Carlo simulations for up to 10 000 bosons, we show that the phase error of a nonideal interferometer scales with t...
متن کاملQuantum Metrology: Detection of Weak Forces Using Schrödinger Cat Resources
We investigate the utility of non classical states of simple harmonic oscillators (a superposition of coherent states) for sensitive force detection. We find that like squeezed states a superposition of coherent states allows the detection of displacement measurements at the Heisenberg limit. Entangling many superpositions of coherent states offers a significant advantage over a single mode sup...
