We demonstrate a polarimetry technique based on geometric phase measurements. The technique can be used to obtain either the polarization state of a light beam or the properties of a polarizing optical system. On the one hand, we apply our…

In this work, we consider the systematic error of quantum metrology by weak measurements under decoherence. We derive the systematic error of maximum likelihood estimation in general to the first-order approximation of a small deviation in…

Weak values are typically obtained experimentally by performing weak measurements, which involve weak interactions between the measured system and a probe. However, the determination of weak values does not necessarily require weak…

A simple formula to read out the weak value from the wave function of the measuring device after the postselection with the initial Gaussian profile is proposed. We apply this formula for the weak value to the classical experiment of the…
