• Abstract: The high-sensitivity quantum detection of a resonant classical force acting on a quantum oscillator can be substantially enhanced through the use of a resonant optical parametric transducer. We demonstrate that this approach not only enables quantum back-action evasion measurements that exceed the Standard Quantum Limit of sensitivity but also facilitates the noiseless amplification of the classical signal. This amplification is achieved by independently measuring the two modulation sidebands generated by the signal force, allowing for a more precise and noise-resistant detection process.
