Abstract

In this article we demonstrate that decoherence of nonclassical states of light can be very efficiently used in optical sensor technology. As an example, we consider squeezing degradation of monomode or bipartite quantum states that are in contact with an environment serving as the measurand. The sensitivity of the measuring device will be greatly enhanced when using strongly squeezed states. Moreover, we show that sensitivity-used squeezing measurement is always larger than for absorption measurements. We present an idea for the important application of the measurement of concentration changes in gaseous flows.
