Quantum Enhanced Cavity QED Interferometer with Partially Delocalized Atoms in Lattices
arXiv:2104.04204 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.127.210401
Abstract
We propose a quantum enhanced interferometric protocol for gravimetry and force sensing using cold atoms in an optical lattice supported by a standing-wave cavity. By loading the atoms in partially delocalized Wannier-Stark states, it is possible to cancel the undesirable inhomogeneities arising from the mismatch between the lattice and cavity fields and to generate spin squeezed states via a uniform one-axis twisting model. The quantum enhanced sensitivity of the states is combined with the subsequent application of a compound pulse sequence that allows to separate atoms by several lattice sites. This, together with the capability to load small atomic clouds in the lattice at micrometric distances from a surface, make our setup ideal for sensing short-range forces. We show that for arrays of atoms, our protocol can reduce the required averaging time by a factor of compared to unentangled lattice-based interferometers after accounting for primary sources of decoherence.
