Amplitude-squared squeezing of Schr\"odinger cat states via Postselected von Neumann Measurement

Abstract

We know that the original Schr\"odinger cat states has no amplitude-squared squeezing. In this paper, we investigate the amplitude-squared squeezing of Schr\"odinger cat states using postselected von Neumann measurement. The results show that after postselected von Neumann measurement, the amplitude-squared squeezing of Schr\"odinger cat states change dramatically and this can be considered a result of weak value amplification. The squeezing effect also investigated by studying the Wigner function of Schr\"odinger cat states after postselected measurement.
