In an optical atomic clock, atoms are irradiated with laser light. If the laser has exactly the right frequency, the atoms change their quantum mechanical state. All external influences on the atoms ...
The trick to creating a better quantum sensor? Just give it a little squeeze. For the first time ever, scientists have used a technique called “quantum squeezing” to improve the gas sensing ...
Quantum engineers 'squeeze' laser frequency combs to make more sensitive gas sensors Date: January 16, 2025 Source: University of Colorado at Boulder Summary: Scientists use devices known as ...
