Experimental noiseless linear amplification using weak measurements

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
The viability of quantum communication schemes rely on sending quantum states of light over long distances. However, transmission loss can degrade the signal strength, adding noise.

Geometric phase in weak measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Pancharatnam's geometric phase is associated with the phase of a complex-valued weak value arising in a certain type of weak measurement in pre- and post-selected quantum ensembles.

Sensitivity Enhanced Refractive Index Sensor by Reducing the Influence of In-Plane Wavevector in Photonic Spin Hall Effect

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
Photonic spin Hall effect (SHE) can be an effective sensor for determining the refractive index (RI) variation of a sensing medium. How to further improve its sensitivity is a very interesting and important issue.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Quantum State Preparation with Weak Nonlinear Measurements [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2022
Quantum control has been of increasing interest in recent years, e.g. for tasks like state initialization and stabilization. Feedback-based strategies are particularly powerful, but also hard to find, due to the exponentially increased search space. Deep

Demystifying Weak Measurements [PDF]

open access: yesFoundations of Physics, 2017
A large literature has grown up around the proposed use of 'weak measurements' (i.e., unsharp measurements followed by post-selection) to allegedly provide information about hidden ontological features of quantum systems. This paper attempts to clarify the fact that 'weak measurements' involve strong (projective) measurements on one (pointer) member of

Quantum weak-interaction-based measurement: from sequential weak measurement to protective measurement [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum Communications and Quantum Imaging XVI, 2018
Weak value measurements have been a real breakthrough in the quantum measurement framework. In particular, quantum measurements may take advantage by anomalous weak values, i.e. values out of the eigenvalues spectrum of the measured observable, both for implementing new measurement techniques and studying Quantum Mechanics foundations.

Weak-value amplification for Weyl-point separation in momentum space

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
The existence of Weyl nodes in the momentum space is a hallmark of a Weyl semimetal (WSM). A WSM can be confirmed by observing its Fermi arcs with separated Weyl nodes.

Quantum current in dissipative systems

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
Describing current in open quantum systems can be problematic due to the subtle interplay of quantum coherence and environmental noise. Probing the noise-induced current can be detrimental to the tunneling-induced current and vice versa.

The Weak Reality That Makes Quantum Phenomena More Natural: Novel Insights and Experiments

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
While quantum reality can be probed through measurements, the Two-State Vector Formalism (TSVF) reveals a subtler reality prevailing between measurements. Under special pre- and post-selections, odd physical values emerge.
