| Kurzbeschreibung | Quantum Sensing is the process in which we acquire information about a physical quantity via measurements using quantum systems. It is a vital process in all quantum technologies. The course will focus on theoretical concepts that impact future implementations of quantum technologies. |
| Lernziel | The course provides an insight into various techniques and limitations in quantum sensing and metrology. |
| Inhalt | The course covers a selection of quantum sensing techniques and precision limitations. Particular focus will be put on theoretical concepts that impact future implementations of quantum technologies. Topics include: historical overview and examples, quantum sensing protocols and their sensitivity, local optimal estimation (Cramér–Rao bound and quantum Fisher information), global optimal estimation, standard quantum limit, Heisenberg limit, teleportation-invariant channels, examples such as Quantum Reading, Quantum Illumination, Quantum super-resolution. |
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Quantum Mechanics I is a prerequisite. The course is complementary to the courses Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Information Processing. |
