摘要:

量子系统是检测微弱信号的有希望的候选者,因为它们在估计外场参数时可以提供无与伦比的性能。然而,当试图检测被背景噪声隐藏的弱信号时,信噪比是比原始灵敏度更相关的度量。我们确定,在适度的假设下的统计特性的信号和噪声,最佳的量子控制检测外部信号的背景噪声的存在下,使用量子传感器。有趣的是,对于白背景噪声,最佳的解决方案是简单和众所周知的自旋锁定控制方案。我们进一步推广,使用数值技术,这些结果的背景噪声是一个相关的洛伦兹谱。我们发现,对于增加相关时间,基于脉冲的序列,如CPMG也接近最优控制检测信号,交叉依赖于信号频率。这些结果表明,一个最佳的检测方案可以很容易地实现在近期的量子传感器,而不需要复杂的脉冲整形。

英文摘要:

Quantum systems are promising candidates for sensing of weak signals as they can provide unrivaled performance when estimating parameters of external fields. However, when trying to detect weak signals that are hidden by background noise, the signal-to-noise-ratio is a more relevant metric than raw sensitivity. We identify, under modest assumptions about the statistical properties of the signal and noise, the optimal quantum control to detect an external signal in the presence of background noise using a quantum sensor. Interestingly, for white background noise, the optimal solution is the simple and well-known spin-locking control scheme. We further generalize, using numerical techniques, these results to the background noise being a correlated Lorentzian spectrum. We show that for increasing correlation time, pulse based sequences such as CPMG are also close to the optimal control for detecting the signal, with the crossover dependent on the signal frequency. These results show that an optimal detection scheme can be easily implemented in near-term quantum sensors without the need for complicated pulse shaping.
