Quantum optical metrology – the lowdown on high-N00N states (2008, methodology): “Without going through the details, which are in most quantum optics textbooks and a nice review article by Louden and Knight [4,7] let us estimate how well we can do with this squeezing approach.”
Enhancing the sensitivity of the LIGO gravitational wave detector by using squeezed states of light (2013, background): “field amplitudes that oscillate out of phase with each other by 90, labeled as “in-phase” and “quadrature phase” [7].”
Qubit-oscillator systems in the ultrastrong-coupling regime and their potential for preparing nonclassical states (2009, background): “The next limit that we consider is that where the oscillator’s characteristic frequency ω0 is large compared to the qubit’s energy splitting (i.e. h̄ω0 ≫ Eq) and also compared to the coupling strength (h̄ω0 ≫ λ).”
The Mathematical Language of Quantum Theory: From Uncertainty to Entanglement (2012, background): “Only basic concepts are needed, but a reader who is not familiar with this topic can find further explanations in the books by Gerry and Knight [64] and Walls and Milburn [139].”
Gaussian quantum information (2011, background): “For a quantum optics (Gerry and Knight, 2005; Bachor and Ralph, 2004; Leonhardt, 2010) approach to quantum information see the textbooks by Walls and Milburn (2008), Kok and Lovett (2010), and Furusawa and van Loock (2011) (who provide a joint theoretical and experimental point of view), while the…”
Enhanced sensitivity of the LIGO gravitational wave detector by using squeezed states of light (2013, background): “[7] Gerry, C.”
Nonseparable States of Light: From Quantum to Classical (2022, background): “which are of the same form of the ladder operator for Fock states or number states of photons [41].”
Quantum Optical Technologies for Metrology, Sensing, and Imaging (2014, methodology): “The N = 2 N00N states were generated using Hong-Ou-Mandel interference [49] with entangled photon pairs from a parametric down conversion source.”
Squeezed states of light and their applications in laser interferometers (2016, methodology): “The P -function [Glauber (1963); Sudarshan (1963)] is calculated by de-convoluting the Wigner function from the ground state uncertainty [Gerry and Knight (2005)].”
Silicon Quantum Photonics (2015, background): “Assuming an ideal photon-pair source, which emits into only two spectral modes, the probability to obtain n pairs per pulse is given by [25], [27], [28]”
Perspectives for Applications of Quantum Imaging (2019, background): “A particular example of non-classical states not considered here are squeezed states of light.[7,9] They also feature a subPoissonian statistics, offering the possibility for measurements with enhanced precision, which has been employed, for example, for subshot noise phase measurements in gravitati”
Microwave photonics with superconducting quantum circuits (2017, methodology): “This pair of conjugate variables satisfies the commutation relation [φ, n] = i (or, rather, [ eiφ, n ] = eiφ [29]) and obeys the Heisenberg uncertainty relation∆φ ∆n ≥ 1.”
