论文摘要
一种常见的弱价值实验可以在一个状态下准备一个粒子，弱测量另一种状态的职业数量，并在选择粒子以在第三个状态下找到粒子（a“ click”）。大多数弱值实验是使用光子进行的，但是单个光子的预言制备困难且速率缓慢。在这里，我们表明上述弱值可以使用强（多光子）相干状态来测量，同时仍然只需要“单击”检测器，例如雪崩光电二极管。一个人只是从单击弱值中减去无单击的弱值，然后通过单击概率的简单函数来缩放答案。
A common type of weak-value experiment prepares a single particle in one state, weakly measures the occupation number of another state, and post-selects on finding the particle in a third state (a 'click'). Most weak-value experiments have been done with photons, but the heralded preparation of a single photon is difficult and slow of rate. Here we show that the weak value mentioned above can be measured using strong (many-photon) coherent states, while still needing only a 'click' detector such as an avalanche photodiode. One simply subtracts the no-click weak value from the click weak-value, and scales the answer by a simple function of the click probability.
