AQP Seminar: Quantum Technology for Frequency Metrology

Abstract: 

Optical atomic clocks based on cold trapped ions offer the possibility to use the sophisticated tools of quantum control developed for quantum information processing for new protocols in frequency metrology. I will present results on optimizing such protocols for tailored states and measurements for ion clocks. I will also discuss prospects and challenges for quantum-assisted protocols in optical atomic clocks in general.
