  • Quantum technologies are reshaping the future of measurement and sensing, and advancements in quantum clocks are at the forefront. These devices, which measure time based on the natural oscillations of atoms,

The article from MSN discusses a groundbreaking development in quantum computing and timekeeping: the creation of a quantum clock that utilizes entanglement to surpass the precision limits of traditional atomic clocks. This new quantum clock, developed by researchers at the University of Oxford, employs a technique known as "quantum squeezing" to enhance measurement accuracy. By entangling atoms, the clock can measure time with unprecedented precision, potentially revolutionizing fields like navigation, where exact timing is crucial, and fundamental physics, where it could test theories like general relativity with greater accuracy. The entanglement allows for a collective measurement of atomic states, reducing the uncertainty in time measurements far below what is possible with individual atomic clocks. This advancement not only pushes the boundaries of what's currently achievable in timekeeping but also opens up new avenues for exploring quantum mechanics and its applications in technology.
