Quantum Fisher information of an N-qubit maximal sliced state in decoherence channels and Ising-type interacting model

Various quantum states have been suggested to realize high-precision measurement and quantum Fisher information (QFI) is one of the most important indicators to evaluate the performance. Here, we systematically investigate the QFI of an N-qubit maximal sliced (MS) state in different environments. In the ideal situation, we present the analytical QFI and it decays from N2 to (N-1)2 as the probability amplitude a changed from 0 to 1, which denotes the decreased metrological ability. In the amplitude damping channel, the variation trends of QFI with respect to the damping probability p are similar and it decreases to the number of qubits N at p = 1, meaning the vanished entanglement superiority. However, it is different in the phase damping channel where with the increase of the number of qubits a turning point of QFI equal to N is found at p closing to 0.1. In the Ising-type interacting model, with the increasing interaction strength y, the QFI with respect to a shows a crossover from decreasing to increasing. Particularly, at the critical point y = 1, the QFI of an N-qubit MS state is found analytically equal to N2 and regardless of a. This indicates a great potential in achieving the Heisenberg-limited metrology and may shed some new light on quantum information science.
