ultrasensitive

"WGM resonators' ultrahigh sensitivity lets us detect single particles and ions, but the potential of this powerful technology has not been fully utilized because we can't use this ultrasensitive sensor directly to measure a complete unknown," Liao added.

At Brigham and Women’s Hospital, for example, Harvard University chemist David Walt and his colleagues applied an ultrasensitive test his lab had developed to blood samples from 37 people with Long Covid.

They have a hefty track record of showing how thermal bolometers can be used as ultrasensitive detectors, and they just demonstrated in an April 10 Nature Electronics paper that bolometer measurements can be accurate enough for single-shot qubit readout.

Prior to demonstrating the high single-shot readout fidelity of bolometers in their most recent paper, the QCD research group first showed that bolometers can be used for ultrasensitive, real-time microwave measurements in 2019.

Fanon, the man, comes alive in Shatz’s retelling: He is an “ultrasensitive soul,” easily wounded, judgmental and combative.
