Optimal Quantum Sensing

Presented by Alexey Gorshkov, NIST

Entangling quantum sensors, such as magnetometers, can dramatically increase their sensitivity. In this talk, we will first show how entanglement in a network of quantum sensors can be used to optimally measure a spatially inhomogeneous field. We will then present a fast protocol for the preparation of the required entangled state in an array of dipoles. We will also discuss applications of this fast protocol to quantum computing and to the preparation of topological entangled states. If time permits, we will briefly mention some other recent work.
