This project aims to develop ultra-high-performance sensors. The research will explore new methods for using the magnetic and optical properties of atomic gases to enable multi-parameter sensing without crosstalk between measurements. It is expected that techniques will be developed to allow simultaneous sensing of rotation and magnetic fields using devices that are compact, ultra-precise and energy efficient. It is also anticipated that these new atomic sensors will support a global network looking for dark matter, which although never seen, is thought to make up 85% of the mass of the universe. The outcomes are expected to benefit medical science, geo-exploration, high-tech manufacturing, navigation and our understanding of the universe.

该项目旨在开发超高性能传感器。该研究将探索利用原子气体的磁性和光学特性实现多参数传感的新方法，而不会造成测量之间的串扰。预计将开发出能够使用紧凑、超精确和节能的设备同时感测旋转和磁场的技术。预计这些新的原子传感器将支持寻找暗物质的全球网络，暗物质虽然从未被发现，但被认为占宇宙质量的 85%。研究结果预计将有利于医学、地理探索、高科技制造、导航和我们对宇宙的理解。
