Title: Critical Quantum Metrology in the Non-Linear Quantum Rabi Model
(Submitted on 16 Jun 2022)
Abstract: The quantum Rabi model (QRM) with linear coupling between light mode and qubit exhibits the analog of a second order phase transition for vanishing mode frequency which allows for criticality-enhanced quantum metrology in a few-body system. We show that the QRM including a non-linear coupling term exhibits much higher measurement precisions due to its first order like phase transition at \emph{finite} frequency, avoiding the detrimental slowing-down effect close to the critical point of the linear QRM. When a bias term is added to the Hamiltonian, the system can be used as a fluxmeter or magnetometer if implemented in circuit QED platforms.
