Original abstract

Quantum sensing with high precision and sensitivity plays an important role in quantum technologies and quantum information processing. Here, we propose a nonreciprocal quantum metrological scheme for estimating rotational angular velocity in a hybrid light-matter platform, where the setup consists of a spinning ring cavity coupled to a two-level system and an auxiliary bosonic mode. Through the Sagnac effect, the angular velocity is converted into a direction-dependent detuning, which modifies the effective light-matter dressing of the hybrid system. As a result, the angular velocity is encoded not only into the renormalized hybrid-mode spectrum, but also into the virtual excitations generated by ultrastrong coupling. These virtual excitations modify the polaritonic frequency response to rotation and enhance the quantum Fisher information (QFI) associated with angular velocity estimation, without requiring direct extraction of virtual excitations. Moreover, since the Sagnac-Fizeau shift enters the virtual-transition energy denominators, the metrological response becomes intrinsically different for opposite driving directions, leading to a tunable nonreciprocal sensitivity contrast. In addition, we also discuss a readout scheme and show that bundle emission coincidence counting can serve as an auxiliary direction-dependent readout channel. Our results provide a route toward exploiting nonreciprocal light-matter dressing and virtual excitations as resources for quantum rotation sensing.
