Pumped-up SU (1, 1) interferometry

SS Szigeti, RJ Lewis-Swan, SA Haine - Physical Review Letters, 2017 - APS
Although SU (1, 1) interferometry achieves Heisenberg-limited sensitivities, it suffers from
one major drawback: Only those particles outcoupled from the pump mode contribute to the …

Optimal and robust quantum metrology using interaction-based readouts

SP Nolan, SS Szigeti, SA Haine - Physical Review Letters, 2017 - APS
Useful quantum metrology requires nonclassical states with a high particle number and
