Quantum metrology and sensing: Landscape study on patent filing Clarke, Nigel S.; Dias, Julia de Moreira; Jürgens, Björn; Herrero Solana, Víctor This study conducted by the European Patent Office shows that the number of patent filings for second-generation quantum metrology and sensing devices is still small but has recently started to grow. It also reveals that a large propor- tion of the patent filings in this field come from academia, suggesting that researchers still account for most knowl- edge and exploitation of quantum physics.
