摘要:

未知相位的高精度干涉测量是许多科学技术领域中计量学的基础。量子纠缠提供了灵敏度的增加,但是目前的技术仅超过了经典干涉测量法用于测量关于已知相位的小变化的极限。在这里,我们介绍了一种技术,结合纠缠态与自适应算法,以精确地估计一个完全未指定的相位,获得更多的信息,每个光子是可能的经典。我们利用该技术首次进行了量子纠缠增强的光学相位测量。这种方法将能够使用干涉测量法快速、精确地确定未知相移。

英文摘要:

The high-precision interferometric measurement of an unknown phase is the basis for metrology in many areas of science and technology. Quantum entanglement provides an increase in sensitivity, but present techniques have only surpassed the limits of classical interferometry for the measurement of small variations about a known phase. Here we introduce a technique that combines entangled states with an adaptive algorithm to precisely estimate a completely unspecified phase, obtaining more information per photon that is possible classically. We use the technique to make the first ab initio entanglement-enhanced optical phase measurement. This approach will enable rapid, precise determination of unknown phase shifts using interferometry.
