{{Short description|Device measuring quantum mechanical effects}} {{Use American English|date = April 2019}} {{Use mdy dates|date = April 2019}} Within quantum technology, a '''quantum sensor''' utilizes quantum mechanical phenomena, such as quantum superposition, quantum entanglement, and quantum squeezing, to measure physical quantities. If a quantum system is measurable, and it interacts with its environment in a known way, then measurements of that system can provide information about its environment. Theoretically such sensor technology would have precision limited only by the uncertainty principle.<ref name=":2" /> The field of quantum sensing deals with the design and engineering of quantum mechanical systems and measurements with potential for better performance than any classical strategy in a number of technological applications.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Rademacher |first1=Markus |last2=Millen |first2=James |last3=Li |first3=Ying Lia |date=2020-10-01 |title=Quantum sensing with nanoparticles for gravimetry: when bigger is better |url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/aot-2020-0019/html |journal=Advanced Optical Technologies |language=en |volume=9 |issue=5 |pages=227–239 |doi=10.1515/aot-2020-0019 |arxiv=2005.14642 |bibcode=2020AdOT....9..227R |s2cid=219124060 |issn=2192-8584}}</ref> Of the wide range of quantum mechanical systems that can be used as a quantum sensor, most can be classified as photonic systems<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal | doi=10.1038/s41566-018-0301-6| title=Advances in photonic quantum sensing| journal=Nature Photonics| volume=12| pages=724–733| year=2018| last1=Pirandola| first1=S| last2=Bardhan| first2=B.

Quantum sensors are often built on continuously variable systems, i.e., quantum systems characterized by continuous degrees of freedom such as position and momentum quadratures. The basic working mechanism typically relies on optical states of light, often involving quantum mechanical properties such as squeezing or two-mode entanglement.<ref name=":0" /> These states are sensitive to physical transformations that are detected by interferometric measurements.<ref name=":3" />

In solid-state physics, a quantum sensor is a quantum device that responds to a stimulus. Usually this refers to a sensor, which has quantized energy levels, uses quantum coherence or entanglement to improve measurements beyond what can be done with classical sensors.<ref name=":1" /> There are four criteria for solid-state quantum sensors:<ref name=":1" />
# The system has to have discrete, resolvable energy levels. # The sensor can be initialized into a well-known state and its state can be read out. # The sensor can be coherently manipulated. # The sensor interacts with a physical quantity and has some response to that quantity.
== Research and applications == Quantum sensors have applications in a wide variety of fields including microscopy, positioning systems, communication technology, electric and magnetic field sensors.<ref name=":1" /> Many measurement devices utilize quantum properties in order to probe measurements such as atomic clocks, Atomic radio receiver, superconducting quantum interference devices, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.<ref name=":1" /><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Pezzè|first1=Luca|last2=Smerzi|first2=Augusto|last3=Oberthaler|first3=Markus K.|last4=Schmied|first4=Roman|last5=Treutlein|first5=Philipp|date=2018-09-05|title=Quantum metrology with nonclassical states of atomic ensembles|journal=Reviews of Modern Physics|language=en|volume=90|issue=3|article-number=035005|doi=10.1103/RevModPhys.90.035005|arxiv=1609.01609|bibcode=2018RvMP...90c5005P|s2cid=119250709}}</ref> With new technological advancements, individual quantum systems can be used as measurement devices, utilizing entanglement, superposition, interference and squeezing to enhance sensitivity and surpass performance of classical strategies.
A good example of an early quantum sensor is an avalanche photodiode (APD). APDs have been used to detect entangled photons. With additional cooling and sensor improvements can be used where photomultiplier tubes (PMT) in fields such as medical imaging. APDs, in the form of 2-D and even 3-D stacked arrays, can be used as a direct replacement for conventional sensors based on silicon diodes.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Campbell|first=Joe C.|date=January 2007|title=Recent Advances in Telecommunications Avalanche Photodiodes|journal=Journal of Lightwave Technology|volume=25|issue=1|pages=109–121|doi=10.1109/jlt.2006.888481|bibcode=2007JLwT...25..109C|s2cid=1398387|url=https://zenodo.org/record/896867 }}</ref>
