Idea

By quantum sensing (or quantum metrology) one means the theory technology of making high-resolution measurements by making use of quantum physics effects.

• nuclear magnetic resonance

• nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond

• quantum measurement

• quantum computing, quantum simulation

• quantum communication

• quantum information theory
