LASER LIGHT ACTS AS A MECHANICAL SPRING IN QUANTUM WORLD

Quantum technology is currently one of the most active fields of research worldwide. It takes advantage of the special properties of quantum mechanical states of atoms, light, or nanostructures to develop, for example, novel sensors for medicine and navigation, networks for information processing and powerful simulators for materials sciences. Generating these quantum states normally requires a strong interaction between the

USE OF QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT TO DETECT RADIO FREQUENCIES WITH MORE SENSITIVITY AND ACCURACY THAN EVER, BUT HOW?

Quantum Entanglement

In a new paper published in Physical Review Letters, University of Arizona engineering and optical sciences researchers, in collaboration with engineers from General Dynamics Mission Systems, demonstrate how a combination of two techniques (radio frequency photonics sensing and quantum metrology) can give sensor networks a previously unheard-of level of precision.
