Cascading amplifiers can create exponentially large coherence

Lucas A. Ostrowski, Giacomo Pantaleoni, Howard M. Wiseman +1

A standard laser beam has photon degeneracy, or coherence, , of at most , where is the number of photons in the laser itself. Even quantum-engineered lasers…

Analytical results for laser models producing a beam with sub-Poissonian photon statistics and coherence scaling as the Heisenberg limit

Lucas A. Ostrowski, Travis J. Baker, Dominic W. Berry +1

Recent advances in laser theory have demonstrated that a quantum enhancement is possible for the production of coherence by a continuous-wave laser device. Curiously…

Universality of the Heisenberg limit for estimates of random phase shifts

Michael J. W. Hall, Dominic W. Berry, Marcin Zwierz +1

The Heisenberg limit traditionally provides a lower bound on the phase uncertainty scaling as 1/<N>, where <N> is the mean number of photons in the probe. However, this limit has a…

Linear-optical processing cannot increase photon efficiency

D. W. Berry, A. I. Lvovsky

We answer the question whether linear-optical processing of the states produced by one or multiple imperfect single-photon sources can improve the single-photon fidelity. This proc…

How to perform the most accurate possible phase measurements

D. W. Berry, B. L. Higgins, S. D. Bartlett +3

We present the theory of how to achieve phase measurements with the minimum possible variance in ways that are readily implementable with current experimental techniques. Measureme…

Demonstrating Heisenberg-limited unambiguous phase estimation without adaptive measurements

B. L. Higgins, D. W. Berry, S. D. Bartlett +3

We derive, and experimentally demonstrate, an interferometric scheme for unambiguous phase estimation with precision scaling at the Heisenberg limit that does not require adaptive…
