From a simple form of the quantum Fisher information, we show that quantum Cram\\'er-Rao bound can be enhanced with super-Poissonianity of the single-mode component. For an optical phase estimation, these bounds can also be achieved in a certain range of unknown phases by performing a parity measurement at the output. On the other hand, over an entire range $[0,2\\pi]$ of unknown phase shifts, we show that the phase-shift range for beating shot-noise limit can be enlarged with sub-Poissonianity of the single-mode component.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-22T09:23:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum phase estimation", "entangled state", "noon-type states", "single-mode component", "unknown phase shifts" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150506000L" } } }
