A recently proposed phase-estimation protocol that is based on measuring the parity of a two-mode squeezed-vacuum state at the output of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer shows that Cram{e}r-Rao bound sensitivity can be obtained [P. M. Anisimov, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf104}, 103602 (2010)]. This sensitivity, however, is expected in the case of an infinite number of parity measurements made on an infinite number of photons. Here we consider the case of a finite number of parity measurements and a finite number of photons, implemented with photon-number-resolving detectors. We use Bayesian analysis to characterize the sensitivity of the phase estimation in this scheme. We have found that our phase estimation becomes biased near 0 or $pi/2$ phase values. Yet there is an in-between region where the bias becomes negligible. In this region, our phase estimation scheme saturates the Cram{e}r-Rao bound and beats the shot-noise limit.
A proposed phase-estimation protocol based on measuring the parity of a two-mode squeezed-vacuum state at the output of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer shows that the Cram{e}r-Rao sensitivity is sub-Heisenberg [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf104}, 103602 (2010)].
We study the sensitivity and resolution of phase measurement in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with two-mode squeezed vacuum (<n> photons on average). We show that super-resolution and sub-Heisenberg sensitivity is obtained with parity detection. In p
We report on an orbital-angular-momentum-enhanced scheme for angular displacement estimation based on two-mode squeezed vacuum and parity detection. The sub-Heisenberg-limited sensitivity for angular displacement estimation is obtained in an ideal si
The interference between coherent and squeezed vacuum light can produce path entangled states with very high fidelities. We show that the phase sensitivity of the above interferometric scheme with parity detection saturates the quantum Cramer-Rao bou
Multipartite entanglement is a key resource for various quantum information tasks. Here, we present a scheme for generating genuine tripartite entanglement via nonlinear optical processes. We derive, in the Fock basis, the corresponding output state
