The first proof-of-principle experimental demonstration of purely atomic weak value amplification using a single trapped 40 Ca + ion is presented. We achieve an amplification factor as large as 50 for the position displacement of the ion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
