Optical atomic clocks with eighteen significant digits are the most accurate measurement devices available to us with applications ranging from tests of fundamental physics to height difference measurements in relativistic geodesy.
I will show how quantum engineering techniques can further push the frontiers in optical metrology using entanglement-enhanced clocks and by making novel species such as highly charged ions (HCI) available.
