BIPM Workshop: The Quantum Revolution in Metrology

28-29 September 2017 (at the BIPM)

Steering Committee

Workshop Executive Secretary

Focus Issue of Metrologia

Introduction

The objective of the workshop is to promote scientific exchange amongst the National Metrology Institutes and with leading researchers on the applications of quantum-based technologies to metrology.

Workshop sessions

The workshop was organized in five thematic sessions:

1. Advances in quantum electrical standards, single-electron transistors and demonstrations of the quantum metrology triangle;


2. Single-photon measurements, radiometry with entangled sources, superconducting particle detectors;


3. Highly entangled systems for metrology, entangled optical clocks;


4. Quantum standards for mass, force, pressure, vacuum, temperature, acoustics and vibration;


5. Emerging ideas in quantum metrology.
