Generating entangled spin states for quantum metrology by single-photon detection

Generating entangled spin states for quantum metrology by single-photon detection

We propose and analyze a probabilistic but heralded scheme to generate pure, entangled, non-Gaussian states of collective spin in large atomic ensembles by means of single-photon detection. One photon announces the preparation of a Dicke state, while two or more photons announce Schrödinger cat sta...
