However, current state-of-the-art cold-atom devices exploit separable (i.e., unentangled) atomic states. This perspective piece asks the question: can entanglement usefully improve cold-atom sensors, in the sense that it gives new sensing capabilities unachievable with current state-of-the-art devices? We briefly review the state-of-the-art in precision cold-atom sensing, focusing on clocks and inertial sensors, identifying the potential benefits entanglement could bring to these devices, and the challenges that need to be overcome to realize these benefits. We survey demonstrated methods of generating metrologically useful entanglement in cold-atom systems, note their relative strengths and weaknesses, and assess their prospects for near-to-medium term quantum-enhanced cold-atom sensing."}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["00036951"]},"date_updated":"2023-08-07T14:36:42Z","doi":"10.1063/5.0050235","department":[{"_id":"OnHo"}],"user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","oa_version":"Preprint","oa":1,"author":[{"last_name":"Szigeti","full_name":"Szigeti, Stuart S.","first_name":"Stuart S."},{"id":"4C02D85E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-2031-204X","last_name":"Hosten","first_name":"Onur","full_name":"Hosten, Onur"},{"first_name":"Simon A.","full_name":"Haine, Simon A.","last_name":"Haine"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","intvolume":" 118","issue":"14","type":"journal_article","scopus_import":"1","isi":1,"day":"07","volume":118,"article_type":"original","status":"public","external_id":{"isi":["000637702100001"],"arxiv":["2010.09168"]},"publication":"Applied Physics Letters","_id":"9331"}
