Sub-Rayleigh-diffraction-bound quantum imaging

The spatial resolution of an imaging apparatus is limited by the Rayleigh diffraction bound, a consequence of the imager's finite spatial extent. We show some N-photon strategies that permit resolution of details that are smaller than this bound, attaining either a 1∕√N enhancement (standard qu...
