Rapid progress in the development of metamaterials and metaphotonics allowed bulky
optical assemblies to be replaced with thin nanostructured films, often called metasurfaces …

Since its introduction 25 years ago, the quantum weak value has gradually transitioned from
a theoretical curiosity to a practical laboratory tool. While its utility is apparent in the recent …

The wavefunction is the complex distribution used to completely describe a quantum system,
and is central to quantum theory. But despite its fundamental role, it is typically introduced as …

A consequence of the quantum mechanical uncertainty principle is that one may not discuss
the path or “trajectory” that a quantum particle takes, because any measurement of position …

Recently, there has been much interest in a new kind of “unspeakable” quantum information
that stands to regular quantum information in the same way that a direction in space or a …

We report on the use of an interferometric weak value technique to amplify very small
transverse deflections of an optical beam. By entangling the beam's transverse degrees of …

In standard quantum weak measurements, preselection and postselection of quantum states
are implemented in the same photon. Here we go beyond this restrictive setting and …

Deterministic quantum computation with one pure qubit (DQC1) is an efficient model of
computation that uses highly mixed states. Unlike pure-state models, its power is not derived …

Recent work by Lundeen et al.[Nature (London) 474, 188 (2011) NATUAS 0028-0836
10.1038/nature10120] directly measured the wave function by weakly measuring a variable …

This paper starts with a brief review of the topic of strong and weak pre-and post-selected
(PPS) quantum measurements, as well as weak values, and afterwards presents original …
