Herman Z. Cummins Lecture V: Jörg Wrachtrup, University of Stuttgart, Germany

Nanoscale Quantum Sensing Guest Speaker Jörg Wrachtrup Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (IQST) and Center for Applied Quantum Technologies University of Stuttgart, Germany Abstract The accuracy of measurements is limited by quantum mechanics. Ingenious demonstrations, like measuring gravitational fields or time have explored accuracy limits and reached fundamental obstructions. Yet, precision measurements so far
