The use of squeezing and entanglement allows advanced interferometers to detect signals that would otherwise be buried in quantum mechanical noise. High sensitivity instruments including magnetometers and gravitational wave detectors have shown enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by injecting single-mode squeezed light into SU(2) interferometers, e.g. the Mach-Zehnder or Michelson topologies. The quantum enhancement in this approach is sensitive to losses, which break the fragile quantum correlations in the squeezed state. In contrast, SU(1,1) interferometers achieve quantum enhancement by noiseless amplification; they noiselessly increase the signal rather than reducing the quantum noise. Prior work on SU(1,1) interferometers has shown quantum-enhanced SNR11 and insensitivity to losses but to date has been limited to low powers and thus low SNR. Here we introduce a new interferometer topology, the SU(2)-in-SU(1,1) nested interferometer, that combines quantum enhancement, the high SNR possible with a SU(2) interferometer, and the loss tolerance of the SU(1,1) approach. We implement this interferometer using four-wave mixing in a hot atomic vapor and demonstrate 2:2(5) dB of quantum SNR enhancement, in a system with a phase variance nearly two orders of magnitude below that of any previous loss-tolerant enhancement scheme. The new interferometer enables new possibilities such as beyond-shot-noise sensing with wavelengths for which efficient detectors are not available.

Nonlinear SU(1,1) interferometers are fruitful and promising tools for spectral engineering and precise measurements with phase sensitivity below the classical bound. Such interferometers have been successfully realized in bulk and fiber-based config
urations. However, rapidly developing integrated technologies provide higher efficiencies, smaller footprints, and pave the way to quantum-enhanced on-chip interferometry. In this work, we theoretically realised an integrated architecture of the multimode SU(1,1) interferometer which can be applied to various integrated platforms. The presented interferometer includes a polarization converter between two photon sources and utilizes a continuous-wave (CW) pump. Based on the potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) platform, we show that this configuration results in almost perfect destructive interference at the output and supersensitivity regions below the classical limit. In addition, we discuss the fundamental difference between single-mode and highly multimode SU(1,1) interferometers in the properties of phase sensitivity and its limits. Finally, we explore how to improve the phase sensitivity by filtering the output radiation and using different seeding states in different modes with various detection strategies.
The quantum correlation of light and atomic collective excitation can be used to compose an SU(1,1)-type hybrid light-atom interferometer, where one arm in optical SU(1,1) interferometer is replaced by the atomic collective excitation. The phase-sens
ing probes include not only the photon field but also the atomic collective excitation inside the interferometer. For a coherent squeezed state as the phase-sensing field, the phase sensitivity can approach the Heisenberg limit under the optimal conditions. We also study the effects of the loss of light field and the dephasing of atomic excitation on the phase sensitivity. Since nonlinear processes are involved in this interferometer, they can couple a variety of different waves and form new types of hybrid interferometers, which provides a new method for basic measurement using the hybrid interferometers.
In this communication we discuss SU(1,1)- and SU(2)-squeezing of an interacting system of radiation modes in a quadratic medium in the framework of Lie algebra. We show that regardless of which state being initially considered, squeezing can be periodically generated.
A sufficient condition for a state |psi> to minimize the Robertson-Schr{o}dinger uncertainty relation for two observables A and B is obtained which for A with no discrete spectrum is also a necessary one. Such states, called generalized intelligent s
tates (GIS), exhibit arbitrarily strong squeezing (after Eberly) of A and B. Systems of GIS for the SU(1,1) and SU(2) groups are constructed and discussed. It is shown that SU(1,1) GIS contain all the Perelomov coherent states (CS) and the Barut and Girardello CS while the Bloch CS are subset of SU(2) GIS.
The quantum stochastic phase estimation has many applications in the precise measurement of various physical parameters. Similar to the estimation of a constant phase, there is a standard quantum limit for stochastic phase estimation, which can be ob
tained with the Mach-Zehnder interferometer and coherent input state. Recently, it has been shown that the stochastic standard quantum limit can be surpassed with non-classical resources such as the squeezed light. However, practical methods to achieve the quantum enhancement in the stochastic phase estimation remains largely unexplored. Here we propose a method utilizing the SU(1,1) interferometer and coherent input states to estimate a stochastic optical phase. As an example, we investigate the Ornstein-Uhlenback stochastic phase. We analyze the performance of this method for three key estimation problems: prediction, tracking and smoothing. The results show significant reduction of the mean square error compared with the Mach-Zehnder interferometer under the same photon number flux inside the interferometers. In particular, we show that the method with the SU(1,1) interferometer can achieve the fundamental quantum scaling, the stochastic Heisenberg scaling, and surpass the precision of the canonical measurement.
