摘要: Quantum interferometric strategy with input two-mode squeezed vacuum [Phys. Rev. Lett. 104 103602] is reexamined for both parity and Ŝz2 measurements. Unlike the previous scheme, we find that phase sensitivity obtained with the Ŝz2 measurement is minimized at phase origin, which may be useful to estimate a small phase shift at high precision. For the phase deviated from zero, the sensitivity increases more slowly than that of the parity detection.
