Quantum Information Sciences
Abstract
Perform research to enable new techniques for ultra-precise navigation, timing, communications and imaging using atomitronics and spintronics (quantum measurement and sensing devices based upon atoms and spin, respectively, instead of electrons). Conventional techniques for sensing magnetic fields, gravity, and timing have reached a plateau in their performance, and will be severely impacted in future contested-battlefield environments. This research brings forth new insights regarding the use of quantum science to enhance Warfighter effectiveness.
