Heisenberg limited metrology using Quantum Error-Correction Codes
read the original abstract
Methods borrowed from the world of quantum information processing have lately been used to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio of quantum detectors. Here we analyze the use of stabilizer quantum error-correction codes for the purpose of signal detection. We show that using quantum error-correction codes a small signal can be measured with Heisenberg limited uncertainty even in the presence of noise. We analyze the limitations to the measurement of signals of interest and discuss two simple examples. The possibility of long coherence times, combined with their Heisenberg limited sensitivity to certain signals, pose quantum error-correction codes as a promising detection scheme.

Quantum metrology via partial quantum error correction
Partial QEC on superpositions of code states suppresses local noise in quantum metrology with fewer checks than full QEC, achieving p to the power floor((l+1)/2) suppression for weight-l noise.

Quantum metrology via partial quantum error correction
Partial QEC on superpositions of code states suppresses parallel weight-l noise by p^floor((l+1)/2) while preserving super-SQL metrology performance using local operators and an adaptive imprinter strategy.
