Metrological Advantages in Seeded and Lossy Nonlinear Interferometers by Jasper Kranias, Guillaume Thekkadath, Khabat Heshami, Aaron Z. Goldberg

“…The quantum Fisher information (QFI) bounds the sensitivity of a quantum measurement, heralding the conditions for quantum advantages when compared with classical strategies. Here, we calculate analytical expressions for the QFI of nonlinear interferometers under lossy conditions and with coherent-state seeding. …”
