(a) Comparison of the QFIs for the N = 2, N = 3, N = 4 interferometers fed with a Fock state
a coherent state with an external phase reference beam
and a coherent state without an external phase reference beam

for (b) a 3-modes interferometer with a
input state and (c) for a 4-modes interferometer with an input
state. The optimal working points are obtained when
