Entanglement and extreme planar spin squeezing

Giuseppe Vitagliano, Giorgio Colangelo, Ferran Martin Ciurana +3

We introduce an entanglement-depth criterion optimized for planar quantum squeezed (PQS) states. It is connected with the sensitivity of such states for estimating an arbitrary, no…

Entanglement-enhanced phase estimation without prior phase information

G. Colangelo, F. Martin Ciurana, G. Puentes +2

We study the generation of planar quantum squeezed (PQS) states by quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement of a cold ensemble of Rb atoms. Precise calibration of the QND me…

Simultaneous tracking of spin angle and amplitude beyond classical limits

Giorgio Colangelo, Ferran Martin Ciurana, Lorena C. Bianchet +2

We show how simultaneous, back-action evading tracking of non-commuting observables can be achieved in a widely-used sensing technology, atomic interferometry. Using high-dynamic-r…

Entanglement-enhanced radio-frequency field detection and waveform sensing

F. Martin Ciurana, G. Colangelo, L. Slodicka +2

We demonstrate a new technique for detecting components of arbitrarily-shaped radio-frequency waveforms based on stroboscopic back-action evading measurements. We combine quantum n…

Generation of macroscopic singlet states in a cold atomic ensemble

N. Behbood, F. Martin Ciurana, G. Colangelo +4

We report the generation of a macroscopic singlet state in a cold atomic sample via quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement induced spin squeezing. We observe 3 dB of spin squeezi…

Feedback-cooling of an atomic spin ensemble

N. Behbood, M. Napolitano, G. Colangelo +4

We describe a measurement-and-feedback technique to deterministically prepare low-entropy states of atomic spin ensembles. Using quantum non-demolition measurement and incoherent o…

Quantum atom-light interfaces in the gaussian description for spin-1 systems

Giorgio Colangelo, Robert J. Sewell, Naeimeh Behbood +2

We extend the covariance-matrix description of atom--light quantum interfaces, originally developed for real and effective spin-1/2 atoms, to include "spin alignment" degrees of fr…

Real-time vector field tracking with a cold-atom magnetometer

Naeimeh Behbood, Ferran Martin Ciurana, Giorgio Colangelo +3

We demonstrate a fast three-axis optical magnetometer using cold, optically-trapped Rb gas as a sensor. By near-resonant Faraday rotation we record the free-induction decay…
