Previous studies focus on various inputs and detection strategies with symmetric gain. In this paper, we analyze a modified SU(1,1) interferometer using asymmetric gain. Two vacuum states are used as the input and on–off detection is performed at the output. In a lossless scenario,symmetric gain is the optimal selection and the corresponding phase sensitivity can achieve the Heisenberg limit as well as the quantum Cramer–Rao bound. In addition, we analyze the phase sensitivity with symmetric gain in the lossy scenario.The phase sensitivity is sensitive to internal losses but extremely robust against external losses. We address the optimal asymmetric gain and the results suggest that this method can improve the tolerance to internal losses. Our work may contribute to the practical development of quantum metrology.展开更多

The definition of higher order SU(1,1) squeezing is introduced in terms of higher order uncertainty relation. For two possible bosonic realizations of SU(1,1) Lie algebra, the second , fourth and sixth order SU(1,1) squeezing are examined in detail. It is shown that the SU(1,1) generalized coherent states can be squeezed to not only second order, but also fourth and sixth order. Hence, it follows that the higher order squeezing will occur for the fluctuations of the square of amplitude in squeezed vacuum. SU(1,1) higher order squeezing is a kind of non classical property which is independent of second order squeezing.展开更多
