• Abstract: This work discusses the possibility of using two-mode squeezed light to improve the performance of existing sensor technology with the focus on its miniaturization under realistic losses. Therefore, we analyze a system consisting of a part for the two-mode squeezed light generation, a sensor region and a detection stage. Based on a general four-wave mixing (FWM) Hamiltonian caused by the third order susceptibility, we formulate linearized equations that describe the FWM process below the threshold and are used to analyze the squeezing quality between the generated optical signal and idler modes. For a possible realization, the focus is set on the chip-integrated generation using micro-ring resonators. To do so, the impact of the design and the pump light are considered in the derived equations. These equations are used to analyze the usage of two-mode squeezed light in quantum metrology and the application in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). Due to the impact of losses in realistic use cases, we show that the main usage is for small and compact devices, which can lead to a quantum improvement up to a factor of ten in comparison of using coherent light only. This enables the use of small squeezing-enhanced sensors with a performance comparable to larger classical sensors.

Our approach is based on a step-by-step solution of a system of integro-differential equations for each nonlinear interaction region. We investigate plane-wave and Gaussian pumping and show that for any parametric gain, there exists a region of phases for which the phase sensitivity surpasses the standard shot-noise scaling.

  We develop and investigate an integrated multimode two-colour SU (1,1) interferometer that operates in a supersensitive mode.
