量子费舍尔信息在量子精密测量自旋猫态制备中的消相干预测

Quantum Fisher Information as a Predictor of Decoherence in the Preparation of Spin-Cat States for Quantum Metrology

Samuel P. Nolan, Simon A. Haine

摘要:

在最简单的形式中,当一个量子态与另一个量子态纠缠时,就会发生退相干,但对第二个量子态的测量结果是不可访问的。由于第二态有效地“测量”了第一态,本文认为量子费舍尔信息是预测和量化这种退相干的相关度量。量子费舍尔信息通常用于确定一个状态测量的上限,以精确地估计一个经典参数,因此它是一个重要的资源。量子增强计量学的目标是创建具有大量子费舍尔信息的非经典态,并将其用于精确测量。在这样做的过程中,状态有可能经历退相干,例如用于创建原子状态的相干叠加的原子-光相互作用可能导致原子-光纠缠。高度非经典的状态,如自旋猫态(薛定谔猫态由集体自旋的叠加构成)被证明是非常容易受到这种退相干的影响。我们还调查了所需的第二个状态的字段占用,这样,这种退相干是可以忽略不计的。

英文摘要:

In its simplest form, decoherence occurs when a quantum state is entangled with a second state, but the results of measurements made on the second state are not accessible. As the second state has effectively "measured" the first, in this paper we argue that the quantum Fisher information is the relevant metric for predicting and quantifying this kind of decoherence. The quantum Fisher information is usually used to determine an upper bound on how precisely measurements on a state can be used to estimate a classical parameter, and as such it is an important resource. Quantum enhanced metrology aims to create non-classical states with large quantum Fisher information and utilise them in precision measurements. In the process of doing this it is possible for states to undergo decoherence, for instance atom-light interactions used to create coherent superpositions of atomic states may result in atom-light entanglement. Highly non-classical states, such as spin-cat states (Schrödinger cat states constructed from superpositions of collective spins) are shown to be highly susceptible to this kind of decoherence. We also investigate the required field occupation of the second state, such that this decoherence is negligible.
