Grant Activity:
Quantum-enhanced atomic gravimetry for improved sensing capabilities
Purpose:
Gravimetry is the science of measuring the acceleration due to Earths gravity. Ultra-precise gravimeters can be used to monitor the depletion of underground water aquifers, or to identify underground deposits of precious minerals.
This project aims to:
1) Use quantum entanglement to achieve the first experimental demonstration of atomic gravimetry with quantum-enhanced sensitivity surpassing the classical limit;
2) Develop new quantum-based protocols for entangled atomic gravimetry with increased sensitivity.
The outcome will be atomic gravimeters of decreased size, weight, and power that will have a broader range of applications in the field, and which can potentially be commercialised.
