Quantum Sensing
Quantum sensing is a field that seeks to use the principles of quantum mechanics to build highly precise measurement devices. Trapped ion clocks are an example of such devices, which use the vibrations of ions to measure time with incredible accuracy. By cooling ions to near absolute zero and trapping them in an electromagnetic field, researchers can isolate individual ions and measure their vibrations using lasers. Because these vibrations are extremely regular and predictable, trapped ion clocks can achieve accuracies of one second in 30 billion years, making them one of the most precise timekeeping devices in existence.
In our group we will use these devices to test the most fundamental theories in nature. We want to see how constant their constants really are or how tiny changes in the gravitational field like gravitational waves alter the flow of time. We use quantum sensing technology similar to technology used for ion trapped quantum computers to demystify some of the most fundamental questions in nature.
