Quantum measurements with atoms have been at the forefront of quantum technology and provide crucial information for a better understanding of quantum physics ever since their conception over a century ago. The universality of the quantized energy states of atoms makes the collective state of an atomic ensemble an outstanding platform for quantum-enhanced metrology. We introduce basic concepts regarding the metrological gain acquired from using nonclassical quantum states via multiparticle entanglement. Current challenges and future prospects for further enhancement of the measurement sensitivity through the use of nonclassical atomic states are discussed with reference to the shot noise and Heisenberg limits.

Quantum non-Gaussian states are considered a useful resource for many tasks in quantum information processing, from quantum metrology and quantum sensing to quantum communication and quantum key distribution. Another useful tool that is gaining attention is the newly constructed quantum switch. Its applications in many tasks in quantum information have been proved to outperform many existing schemes in quantum communication and quantum thermometry. In this contribution, we demonstrate this to be very useful for engineering highly non-Gaussian states from Gaussian operations whose order is controlled by degrees of freedom of a control qubit. The nonconvexity of the set of Gaussian states and the set of Gaussian operations guarantees the emergence of non-Gaussianity after post-selection on the control qubit deterministically, in contrast to existing protocols in the literature. The nonclassicality of the resulting states is discussed accordingly.
