Quantum probes are atomic-sized devices mapping information of their environment to quantum mechanical states. By improving measurements and at the same time minimizing perturbation of the environment, they form a central asset for quantum technologies. Here, we present a realization of single-atom quantum probes for local thermometry based on the spin dynamic of individual neutral Caesium (probe) atoms in an ultracold gas (bath) of Rubidium atoms. The competition of inelastic endo- and exoergic spin-exchange processes map the temperature onto the quasi-spin population of the probe. The sensitivity of the thermometer can be adjusted via the external magnetic field changing the Zeeman energy splitting. Sensitivity can also be enhanced, if temperature information is obtained from the nonequilibrium dynamic, instead of the steady-state distribution, of the probe, maximizing the information obtained per inelastic collision and thus minimizing the perturbation of the bath. We will discuss the latest state of the experiment to include coherence of the probe for further quantum probing approaches.
