Detector imperfections in a recent scheme for Schrodinger-cat generation

Nielsen and Mo/lmer have recently suggested a scheme transforming squeezed states into Schrödinger‐cat‐like states. Compared to previous schemes, this one is expected to generate cat‐like states with larger amplitudes. Here, we analyze their scheme with consideration of experimental imperfections.
