In contrast to the standard quantum state tomography, the direct tomography seeks the direct access to the complex values of the wave function at particular positions (i.e., the expansion coefficient in a fixed basis). Originally put forward as a special case of weak measurement, it can be extended to arbitrary measurement setup. We generalize the idea of quantum metrology, where a real-valued phase is estimated, to the estimation of complex-valued phase, and apply it for the direct tomography of the wave function. It turns out that the reformulation can help us easily find the optimal measurements for efficient estimation. We further propose two different measurement schemes that eventually approach the Heisenberg limit. In the first scheme, the ensemble of measured system is duplicated and the replica ensemble is time-reversal transformed before the start of the measurement. In the other method, the pointers are prepared in special entangled states, either GHZ-like maximally entangled state or the symmetric Dicke state. In both methods, the real part of the parameter is estimated with a Ramsey-type interferometry while the imaginary part is estimated by amplitude measurements.
Quantum metrology protocols allow to surpass precision limits typical to classical statistics. However, in recent years, no-go theorems have been formulated, which state that typical forms of uncorrelated noise can constrain the quantum enhancement t
The ultimate precision limit in estimating the Larmor frequency of $N$ unentangled rotating spins is well established, and is highly important for magnetometers, gyroscopes and many other sensors. However this limit assumes perfect, single addressing
Multimode Gaussian quantum light, which includes multimode squeezed and multipartite quadrature entangled light, is a very general and powerful quantum resource with promising applications in quantum information processing and metrology. In this pape
Nuclear spins were among the first physical platforms to be considered for quantum information processing, because of their exceptional quantum coherence and atomic-scale footprint. However, their full potential for quantum computing has not yet been
The precision limit in quantum state tomography is of great interest not only to practical applications but also to foundational studies. However, little is known about this subject in the multiparameter setting even theoretically due to the subtle i
