Researchers Develop an Aligned Ensemble of Quantum Sensors

Envision a sensor capable of detecting changes in the proton concentration of a single protein, inside a single cell, due to its extreme sensitivity. This level of understanding would expose elusive quantum-scale dynamics of that protein’s function, possibly even in real time, but will need a sensor with controllable features at a similar scale.
