Quantum limits in measurement and communication

通过操纵原子和光的单个粒子，量子技术有望在通信系统和科学和工程应用的高精度测量方面掀起一场革命。这场革命的好处可以与现代半导体相媲美。这个项目将通过实现量子物理学所允许的测量的基本限制，并利用这些测量的力量进行通信，从而使这些好处更加接近。它还将确定简化潜在量子技术的方法，加速它们的采用。这项研究将使澳大利亚的理论和实验研究人员站在21世纪技术的最前沿。

By manipulating atoms and single particles of light, quantum technologies promise a revolution in communications systems and high-precision measurements for scientific and engineering applications. The benefits of this revolution may be comparable with those of modern semiconductors. This project will bring these benefits closer by achieving the fundamental limits to measurement allowed by quantum physics, and harnessing the power of these measurements for communication. It will also identify ways to simplify potential quantum technologies, hastening their adoption. This research will place Australian theoretical and experimental researchers at the forefront of 21st century technology.
