Quantum sensor network metrology with bright solitons
Abstract
We consider multiparameter quantum metrology problem with bright soliton networks in the presence of weak losses. We introduce General Heisenberg Limit (GHL) $\sigma_{\boldsymbol{\chi}}=1/N^k$ that characterizes fundamental limitations for unknown parameter measurement and estimation accuracy $\sigma_{\boldsymbol{\chi}}$ within linear ($k=1$) and nonlinear ($k=3$) quantum metrology approaches to solitons. We examine multipartite $N00N$ states specially prepared for the improvement of multiparameter estimation protocols. As a particular example of producing such states, we propose the three-mode soliton Josephson junction (TMSJJ) system as a three mode extension for the soliton Josephson junction (SJJ) bosonic model, which we previously proposed. The energy spectrum of the TMSJJ exhibits sharp phase transition peculiarities for the TMSJJ ground state. The transition occurs from a Gaussian-like (coherent) state to the superposition of entangled Fock states, which rapidly approach the three-mode $N00N$ state. We show that in the presence of weak losses, the TMSJJ enables saturate scaling relevant to the optimal state limit close to the GHL. Our findings open new prospects for quantum network sensorics with atomtronic circuits.
