• Abstract: Nonclassical states of bosonic modes, especially the large number states, are valuable resources for quantum information processing and quantum metrology. However, it is intricate to apply unitary protocols to generate a desired Fock state due to the uniform energy spectrum of bosonic system. We here propose a measurement-based protocol that leverages the resonant Jaynes-Cummings interaction of the bosonic mode with an ancillary two-level atom and sequential projective measurements on the atom. Using the generalized parity measurement constructed by several rounds of free-evolution and measurement with proper intervals, we can efficiently filter out the unwanted population and push the target mode conditionally toward the desired Fock state. In ideal situation, a Fock state $|n_t\approx2000\rangle$ can be prepared with a fidelity over $98\%$ using only $8$ rounds of measurements. With qubit dissipation and dephasing and cavity decay in the current circuit QED platforms, a Fock state $|n_t\approx100\rangle$ can be prepared with a fidelity about $80\%$ by $6$ measurements. It is found that the number of the measurement rounds for preparing a large Fock state $|n_t\rangle$ scales roughly as $\log_2\sqrt{n_t}$, similar to the number of ancillary qubits required in the state preparation via the quantum phase estimation algorithm yet costs much less gate operations. Our protocol can also be used to prepare a large Dicke state $|J<1000,0\rangle$ of a spin ensemble with a sufficiently high fidelity by less than $3$ measurements, which is qualified for the quantum Fisher information approaching the Heisenberg scaling in sensing the rotation phase along the $x$ axis.

We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.
