• Abstract: One of the challenges of quantum technologies is realising the quantum advantage, predicted for ideal systems, in real applications, which have to cope with decoherence and inefficiencies. In quantum metrology, sub-shot-noise imaging (SSNI) and sensing methods can provide genuine quantum enhancement in realistic situations. However, wide field SSNI schemes realized so far suffer a trade-off between the resolution and the sensitivity gain over classical counterpart: small pixels or integrating area, are necessary to achieve high imaging resolution, but larger pixels allow a better detection efficiency of quantum correlations, which means a larger quantum advantage. Here we show how the SSNI protocol can be optimized to significantly improve the resolution without giving up the quantum advantage in the sensitivity. We show a linear resolution improvement (up to a factor 3) with respect to the simple protocol used in previous demonstrations.
