Single-Shot Single-Mode Optical Two-Parameter Displacement Estimation beyond Classical Limit

Search this article

Description

Uncertainty principle prohibits the precise measurement of both components of displacement parameters in phase space. We have theoretically shown that this limit can be beaten using single-photon states, in a single-shot and single-mode setting [F. Hanamura et al., Phys. Rev. A 104, 062601 (2021)]. In this paper, we validate this by experimentally beating the classical limit. In optics, this is the first experiment to estimate both parameters of displacement using non-Gaussian states. This result is related to many important applications, such as quantum error correction.
