Resolution and sensitivity of a Fabry-Perot interferometer with a photon-number-resolving detector
arXiv:0905.1085 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.80.043822
Abstract
With photon-number resolving detectors, we show compression of interference fringes with increasing photon numbers for a Fabry-Perot interferometer. This feature provides a higher precision in determining the position of the interference maxima compared to a classical detection strategy. We also theoretically show supersensitivity if N-photon states are sent into the interferometer and a photon-number resolving measurement is performed.
