Entangled quantum states allow for sub shot-noise sensitivity with linear interferometers, with applications in various fields such as quantum frequency standards, quantum lithography, quantum positioning and clock synchronization, and quantum imaging. This contribution discusses further the structure of entanglement needed for reaching the smallest phase uncertainties. In particular, we investigate the relation between entanglement of at most k particles in the probe state and the corresponding phase uncertainty both theoretically [1] and experimentally [2], using a Dicke state of 4 photons.
