The Generation of Super-Resolving Single-Photon Path-Entangled State

Abstract

In this paper, we propose two protocols for generating super-resolving single-photon path-entangled states from general maximally path-entangled N00N states. We also show that both protocols generate the desired state with different probabilities depending on the type of detectors being used. Such super-resolving single-photon path-entangled states preserve high resolving power but lack the requirement of a multi-photon absorbing resist, which makes this state a perfect candidate for quantum lithography.
