SQUEIS aims to establish new frontiers in atom interferometry by devising and applying quantum-enhancement techniques based on squeezing to state-of-the-art applications in gravimetry, gradiometry and inertial sensing.
SQUEIS
SQUEIS explores quantum state engineering in different experimental platforms that are relevant for atomic free-fall and compact trapped sensors. Squeezing-generation techniques in this project are based on novel strategies to exploit tunable atom-atom interaction in quantum gases, as well as non-demolition measurements via the coupling of atoms and light. These entanglement-creation methods are made compatible with the stringent requirements of atom interferometers with respect to the spatial delocalization of entangled states and their protection against decoherence during finite interrogation times.
