Quantum Interferometry
1. What Is Interferometry? Interferometry is a technique that involves splitting a wave (like light or sound) into two paths, letting them travel separately, and then recombining them. When the….
Quantum Gravimeters
1. What Is a Gravimeter? A gravimeter is an instrument that measures gravitational acceleration—the force of gravity at a specific point on Earth’s surface. This measurement can tell us: Traditional….
Quantum-enhanced Measurement Techniques
Measurement is a fundamental process in science. Whether you’re detecting gravitational waves, measuring magnetic fields, or determining time with atomic clocks—precision matters. However, classical measurement methods have limits, particularly due….
Quantum Materials
1. Introduction: What Are Quantum Materials? Quantum materials are a class of substances whose properties are governed by the strange and often counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Unlike traditional materials….
Quantum Metrology with Light
Metrology is the science of measurement. It focuses on how accurately we can measure physical quantities—like time, length, mass, temperature, etc. Quantum metrology, on the other hand, goes beyond the….
Quantum Optomechanics
Optomechanics is the study of how light (optics) and mechanical systems (mechanics) interact. More specifically, quantum optomechanics looks at how quantum light interacts with tiny mechanical oscillators, such as membranes,….
Quantum Internet
Imagine a world where your data is not just encrypted but physically protected by the laws of physics. A world where quantum computers across continents can work together in perfect….
Quantum Sensors
Quantum sensors are devices that use the unique properties of quantum mechanics—like superposition, entanglement, and quantum tunneling—to measure physical quantities with extremely high precision. These sensors can detect tiny changes….
How quantum sensors are changing scientific research
Quantum sensors are revolutionizing scientific research by achieving unprecedented levels of precision in measuring physical phenomena. These devices use quantum mechanics to detect minute changes in gravity, magnetic fields, time,….
