It is well established that quantum error correction can improve the performance of quantum sensors. But new theory work cautions that, unexpectedly, the approach can also give rise to inaccurate and misleading results — and […]
Exactly one year after the first staring radar was installed at the University of Birmingham campus, a second identical radar has been installed, representing another step in the journey to hosting the very first quantum-enabled […]
Two teams of physicists at University of Innsbruck have designed the first programmable quantum sensor, and tested it in the laboratory. To do so they applied techniques from quantum information processing to a measurement problem. […]
Scientists at the University of Tsukuba have developed a method for monitoring the temperature using the naturally occurring atom-like defects in diamonds. They found that increased heat led to reduced intensity of the nonlinear harmonic […]
A new International Network set up by QT Hub Sensors and Timing researchers at the University of Birmingham aims to tackle global challenges, as set out in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Since the set […]
Bosch is setting up a new business unit to commercialise quantum sensors. Located in Germany initially, it will look to pool the results of research so far and translate them into products. Bosch said that […]
An object hidden below ground has been located using quantum technology – a long-awaited milestone with profound implications for industry, human knowledge and national security. UK National Quantum Technology Hub in Sensors and Timing researchers […]
Deploying quantum technologies in space, while complex, will be truly transformative on a global scale. The International Network in Space Quantum Technologies (INSQT) is a new project led by UK Quantum Technology Hub Sensors and […]
The International Clock and Oscillator Networking (ICON) project has been awarded £1.5 million in funding from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to bring together world-leading transportable optical clocks and world-leading optical link […]
Within the field of spintronics, devices based on the interaction between spin and heat flow have emerged as a potential candidate for new thermoelectric devices (devices which convert heat to electricity). “Magnons,” quanta of spin […]
