Abstract

Quantum steering is an important correlation in quantum information theory. A recent work [Nat. Commun. 12, 2410 (2021)NCAOBW2041-172310.1038/s41467-021-22353-3] showed that quantum steering is also useful for quantum metrology. Here, we extend the exploration of steering-enhanced quantum metrology from single noiseless phase shifts to superpositions of noisy phase shifts. As concrete examples, we consider a control system that manipulates a target system to pass through a superposition of either dephased or depolarized phase shifts channels. We show that using such superpositions of noisy phase shifts can suppress the effects of noise and improve metrology. Furthermore, we also implemented proof-of-principle experiments for a superposition of dephased phase shifts on the IBM quantum experience, demonstrating a clear improvement on metrology.
