Concept 30 of 42 · Quantum-Enhanced Measurement

Entangled GHZ probes

Collective phase accumulation can amplify a small signal.

01 / Mathematical framework
$$\lvert\mathrm{GHZ}\rangle=(\lvert0\rangle^{\otimes N}+\lvert1\rangle^{\otimes N})/\sqrt2$$

Physical intuition

Collective phase accumulation can amplify a small signal.

Deep dive: physical mechanism

A shared superposition acquires a relative phase N times faster than one qubit for the same interrogation.

What is measured experimentally?

Parity oscillations can show enhanced phase frequency.

Assumptions, noise and limitations

Uncorrelated dephasing can erase the scaling advantage rapidly.

Research and simulation exercise

Compare GHZ and product probes at fixed total experimental time.
