Perspective highlights the potential of quantum sensors using atomic vapors, suggesting they could revolutionize sensing technologies.
Atomic vapors, manipulated and probed by light and other electromagnetic fields, constitute versatile and powerful quantum systems for sensing applications. Atoms are identical, isolatable, interfaceable, and intelligible. These features, coupled with the relative simplicity with which quantum properties can be exploited in state preparation and detection using modern laser and electro-optic tools, make atoms very attractive for sensing applications. This Perspective discusses the potential and process for realizing practical quantum sensors using atoms.
