Abstract Dynamical decoupling (DD) is normally ineffective when applied to DC measurement. In its straightforward implementation, DD nulls out DC signal as well while suppressing noise. This work proposes a phase relay method that is capable of continuously interrogating the DC signal over many DD cycles. We illustrate its efficacy when applied to the measurement of a weak DC magnetic field with an atomic spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. Sensitivities approaching standard quantum limit or Heisenberg limit are potentially realizable for a coherent spin state or a squeezed spin state of 10000 atoms, respectively, while ambient laboratory level noise is suppressed by DD. Our work offers a practical approach to mitigate the limitations of DD to DC measurement and would find other applications for resorting coherence in quantum sensing and quantum information processing research.

A 97 013408 [23] In contrast to coupling all the spin levels during a pulse, remarkably, Kaewuam et al. demonstrated an exquisite strategy for dynamical decoupling implemented in multi-ion clock system, where a pulse only couples upper hyperfine levels of a clock transition to cancel out inhomogeneous broadening associated with the electric quadrupole shift induced by neighboring ions.[6] [24] Hirose M, Aiello C D and Cappellaro P 2012 Phys.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
