Spin squeezing in an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond

Weijie Wu, Emily J. Davis, Lillian B. Hughes +10

Spin squeezed states provide a seminal example of how the structure of quantum mechanical correlations can be controlled to produce metrologically useful entanglement. Such squeeze…
