Precision measurements of optical phases have many applications in science and technology. Entangled multiphoton states have been suggested for performing such measurements with precision that significantly surpasses the shot-noise limit. Until recently, such states have been generated mainly using spontaneous parametric down-conversion-a process which is intrinsically probabilistic, counteracting the advantages that the entangled photon states might have. Here we use a semiconductor quantum dot to generate entangled multiphoton states in a deterministic manner, using periodic timed excitation of a confined spin. This way we entangle photons one by one at a rate which exceeds 300 MHz. We use the resulting multiphoton state to demonstrate super-resolved optical phase measurement. Our results open up a scalable way for realizing genuine quantum enhanced supersensitive measurements in the near future.
