Abstract
Based on two-photon entanglement, quantum remote sensing enables the measurement and detection to be done non-locally and remotely. However, little attention has been paid to implement a noncontact way to sense a real objects angular rotation, which is a key step towards the practical applications of precise measurements with entangled twisted photons. Here, we use photon pairs entangled in orbital angular momentum (OAM) to show that a real object's angular rotation can be measured non-locally. Our experiment reveals that the angular sensitivity of the object encoded with idler photons is proportional to the measured OAM values of signal photons. It suggests potential applications in developing a noncontact way for angle remote sensing of an object with customized measurement resolution. Moreover, this feature may provide potential application in sensing of some light-sensitive specimens when the entangled photon pairs, which have significantly different wavelengths, are used, such as one photon is infrared but the other one is visible.
