Saturating the one-axis twisting quantum Cramr-Rao bound with a total spin readout
JOURNAL OF PHYSICS COMMUNICATIONS(2024)
Abstract
We show that the lowest quantum Cramer-Rao bound achievable in interferometry with a one-axis twisted spin coherent state is saturated by the asymptotic method of moments error of a protocol that uses one call to the one-axis twisting, one call to time-reversed one-axis twisting, and a final total spin measurement (i.e., a twist-untwist protocol). The result is derived by first showing that the metrological phase diagram for one-axis twisting is asymptotically characterized by a single quantum Fisher information value N(N + 1)/2 for all times, then constructing a twist-untwist protocol having a method of moments error that saturates this value. The case of finite-range one-axis twisting is similarly analyzed, and a simple functional form for the metrological phase diagram is found in both the short-range and long-range interaction regimes. Numerical evidence suggests that the finite-range analogues of twist-untwist protocols can exhibit a method of moments error that asymptotically saturates the lowest quantum Cramer-Rao bound achievable in interferometry with finite-range one-axis twisted spin coherent states for all interaction times.
