Abstract :
Few years ago it was experimentally demonstrated how squeezed light can be used to enhance the resolution of measurements of small displacements in optical images, or beam displacements (Treps et al., 2002). In this work we discuss measurements of beam rotations about the optical axis and identify the factors limiting the resolution (Barnett et al., 2006).
