Abstract

Squeezing and transition criticality are two main sensitivity resources for quantum metrology (QM), combination of them may yield an upgraded metrology protocol for higher upper bound of measurement precision (MP). We show that such a combination is feasible in light-matter interactions by a realizable asymmetric non-linear quantum Rabi model (QRM). Indeed, the non-linear coupling possesses a squeezing resource for diverging MP while the non-monotonous degeneracy lifting by the asymmetries induces an additional tunable transition which further enhances the MP by several orders, as demonstrated by the quantum Fisher information. Moreover, the protocol is immune from the problem of diverging preparation time of probe state that may hinder the conventional linear QRM in application of QM. This work establishes a paradigmatic case of combining different sensitivity resources to manipulate QM and maximize MP.
