In optical interferometry path-entangled states such as NOON states have shown to give quantum-enhanced precision measurements, but these states are notoriously fragile to particle losses, which typically collapse the quantum state and destroy the phase information. A class of inherently robust states that show the potential for great improvements over the alternatives are the entangled coherent states (ECSs). We show that these states allow substantial improvements over unentangled `classical' states and highly-entangled NOON states for a wide range of loss values. We then describe a measurem

Given that the use of ancillae helps, it is no surprise that there are noisy channels for which the optimal strategy may depend on the noise level.

An algorithm to multiplex multiple image captures simultaneously onto a single image sensor at full frame resolution was developed for imaging metrology. Parseval’s theorem was used to obtain the image intensity from image time-series of around typically 256 frames captured by the imaging sensor at typically 60 fps, though kHz frame rates are possible, hardware permitting. The time-series contained contributions from each image channel in the system, which were created by periodically modulating the intensity of the light source which defined that channel. The modulating time-series was conver

Abstract:
Observing and controlling solid state quantum systems is an area of intense research in quantum science today. Such systems offer the natural advantage of being bound into a solid device, eliminating the need for laser cooling and trapping of atoms in free space. These solid state "atoms" can interface directly with photonic channels designed to efficiently couple into larger networks of interacting quantum systems. With all of the tools of semiconductor fabrication technology available, the idea of scalable, chip-based quantum networks is a tantalizing prospect.<br>Physics
