Operational phase distributions via displaced squeezed states
Vladimír Bužek, Mark S. Hillery · Journal of Modern Optics · 1996
We introduce an ‘effective’ phase state with which high-sensitivity phase-shift measurements can be performed. These states can be used for high-precision operational measurements of phase distributions of states which in phase space are localized in regions whose angular width is much larger than π. We propose a method by means of which the corresponding operational phase distribution can be measured.
