Towards IC-based quantum sensing - recent achievements and future research trends

This paper describes some of the recent trends in the use of integrated circuit (IC) technology for the design of smart quantum sensors. To this end, after a brief introduction into the topic of quantum sensing including its intrinsic advantages and associated challenges, a number of emerging applications including the fields of IC-based inductive electron and nuclear spin detection as well as Rydberg gas sensing and NV center based sensing are used to highlight the great potential of the IC-based quantum sensing approach.
