• Abstract summary: We report an experimental demonstration of a quantum enhancement in sensing with a bosonic probe with different encodings. In a practical radiometry scenario, we attain a 5.3 dB enhancement of sensitivity, which reaches $9.1times10-4,mathrmHz-1/2$ when measuring the excitation population of a receiver mode.

• Abstract: By exploiting the exotic quantum states of a probe, it is possible to realize efficient sensors that are attractive for practical metrology applications and fundamental studies. Similar to other quantum technologies, quantum sensing is suffering from noises and thus the experimental developments are hindered. Although theoretical schemes based on quantum error correction (QEC) have been proposed to combat noises, their demonstrations are prevented by the stringent experimental requirements, such as perfect quantum operations and the orthogonal condition between the sensing interaction Hamiltonian and the noise Lindbladians. Here, we report an experimental demonstration of a quantum enhancement in sensing with a bosonic probe with different encodings, by exploring the large Hilbert space of the bosonic mode and developing both the approximate QEC and the quantum jump tracking approaches. In a practical radiometry scenario, we attain a 5.3 dB enhancement of sensitivity, which reaches $9.1\times10^{-4}\,\mathrm{Hz}^{-1/2}$ when measuring the excitation population of a receiver mode. Our results demonstrate the potential of quantum sensing with near-term quantum technologies, not only shedding new light on the quantum advantage of sensing by revealing its difference from other quantum applications, but also stimulating further efforts on bosonic quantum technologies.

  We propose a scalable scheme with a symmetrical variational quantum circuit which, same as the Loschmidt echo, consists of a forward and a backward evolution. We show that in this scheme the quantum Fisher information, which quantifies the precision limit, can be efficiently obtained from a measurement signal of the Loschmidt echo. We experimentally implement the scheme on an ensemble of 10-spin quantum processor and successfully achieves a precision near the theoretical limit which outperforms the standard quantum limit with 12.4 dB.
