The field of quantum sensing is rapidly evolving, harnessing the power of quantum devices to detect external physical quantities with unprecedented precision. Quantum sensors possess unique features such as discrete energy levels, turn-on and get-answer properties, coherent manipulation, and interaction with physical external amounts, setting them apart from classical sensors. With quantum sensing protocols nearing practical implementation in commercial applications, researchers are now focusing on improving the efficiency and performance of these cutting-edge devices.
Quantum sensing is a field of research that involves using quantum devices to detect and measure physical quantities such as magnetic fields, temperature, and pressure. These sensors have the potential to be more sensitive than classical sensors, allowing for the detection of weak signals at the nanoscale level.
In this context, researchers have been exploring the use of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond as a platform for quantum sensing. NV centers are defects in the diamond lattice that can exhibit quantum behavior, making them ideal for sensing applications. The Tavis-Cummings model is a semi-classical model used to describe the behavior of NV centers in diamond.
The Tavis-Cummings model describes the NV center as a non-interacting two-level quantum system distributed inhomogeneously due to heterogeneous local magnetic and strain environments. This model forms the basis for developing feedback control algorithms for tracking the cavity field, income signal, and reflection signal in the sensing system.
Feedback control algorithms are essential for controlling the behavior of NV centers in diamond-based quantum sensors. These algorithms allow researchers to track and manipulate the cavity field, income signal, and reflection signal in real-time. The Tavis-Cummings model provides a framework for developing these algorithms, which can be used to improve the sensitivity and accuracy of quantum sensing devices.
Researchers have formulated simplified toy models for the Tavis-Cummings system to investigate alternative schemes of feedback control methods such as gradient methods and target attractor methods. These studies aim to compare the pros and cons of different feedback control methods for effective control in nitrogenvacancy-cavity quantum sensing.
