Oxford team achieves first-ever 'quadsqueezing' quantum interaction

Researchers at the University of Oxford have demonstrated a new type of quantum interaction using a single trapped ion. By creating and controlling increasingly complex forms of 'squeezing' - including a fourth-order effect known as quadsqueezing - the team has, for the first time, made previously unreachable quantum effects experimentally accessible. The approach also provides a new way to engineer these interactions, with potential applications in quantum simulation, sensing, and computing. Their results have been published in Nature Physics.
