Abstract

Coherent feedback is the use of feedback loops not involving any measurements for the purpose of quantum control. This can be contrasted to measurement-based feedback where the feedback signal is directed by the result of measurements upon the system. Here, we develop a general framework to describe interferometric coherent feedback loops and prove that, under any such scheme, the steady-state squeezing of a bosonic mode subject to a rotating wave coupling with a white-noise environment and to any quadratic Hamiltonian must abide by a noise-dependent bound that reduces to the 3-dB limit at zero temperature. Such a finding is compared, at fixed dynamical parameters, with the performance of homodyne continuous monitoring of the output modes, which allows one to beat coherent feedback and the 3-dB limit under certain dynamical conditions.
