  5. The objective of the DARPA Quantum Sensor Program is to develop practical sensors operating outside of a controlled laboratory environment that exploit non-classical photon states (e.g. entangled, squeezed, or cat) to surpass classical sensor resolution.

  6. Cavity QED Two Roads to Optical CNOT I. Enhance Nonlinear Interaction with a Cavity or EIT — Kimble, Walther, Lukin, et al. II. Exploit Nonlinearity of Measurement — Knill, LaFlamme, Milburn, Franson, et al.

  7. WHY IS A KERR NONLINEARITY LIKE A PROJECTIVE MEASUREMENT? Photon-Photon XOR Gate   LOQC   KLM Cavity QED EIT Photon-Photon Nonlinearity ??? Kerr Material Projective Measurement

  8. Projective Measurement Yields Effective “Kerr”! GG Lapaire, P Kok, JPD, JE Sipe, PRA 68 (2003) 042314 A Revolution in Nonlinear Optics at the Few Photon Level: No Longer Limited by the Nonlinearities We Find in Nature!  NON-Unitary Gates  Effective Unitary Gates Franson CNOT Hamiltonian KLM CSIGN Hamiltonian

Single-Photon Quantum Non-Demolition Cross-Kerr Hamiltonian: HKerr=a†ab†b Kerr medium b |in |1 |1 a D2 D1 Again, with  = 10–22, this is impossible. “1” You want to know if there is a single photon in mode b, without destroying it. *N Imoto, HA Haus, and Y Yamamoto, Phys. Rev. A. 32, 2287 (1985).

The input state is constrained to be a superposition of 0, 1, and 2 photons only. Conditioned on a detector coincidence in D1 and D2. Effective  = 1/8  21 Orders of Magnitude Improvement!

  16. Local and Global Distinguishability in Quantum Interferometry GA Durkin & JPD, quant-ph/0607088 A statistical distinguishability based on relative entropy characterizes the fitness of quantum states for phase estimation. This criterion is used to interpolate between two regimes, of local and global phase distinguishability. The analysis demonstrates that, in a passive MZI, the Heisenberg limit is the true upper limit for local phase sensitivity —and Only N00N States Reach It! N00N

  17. NOON-States Violate Bell’s Inequalities Probabilities of correlated clicks and independent clicks Building a Clauser-Horne Bell inequality from the expectation values CF Wildfeuer, AP Lund and JP Dowling, quant-ph/0610180 Bell Violation!

Efficient Schemes for Generating N00N States! |N>|0> |N0::0N> Constrained Desired Number Resolving Detectors |1,1,1> Question: Do there exist operators “U” that produce “N00N” States Efficiently? Answer: YES! H Cable, R Glasser, & JPD, quant-ph/0704.0678. Linear! N VanMeter, P Lougovski, D Uskov, JPD, quant-ph/0612154. Linear! KT Kapale & JPD, quant-ph/0612196. (Nonlinear.)

  21. Linear-Optical Quantum-State Generation: A N00N-State ExampleN VanMeter, D Uskov, P Lougovski, K Kieling, J Eisert, JPD, quant-ph/0612154 U This counter example disproves the N00N Conjecture: That N Modes Required for N00N. The upper bound on the resources scales quadratically! Upper bound theorem: The maximal size of a N00N state generated in m modes via single photon detection in m–2 modes is O(m2).
