Quantum Weak Measurement Amplifies Dispersion Signal of Rydberg Atomic System
Abstract
Rydberg atoms, with their long coherence time and large electric dipole moment, are pivotal in quantum precision measurement. In the process of approaching the standard quantum limit, higher demands are placed on detection schemes. This paper presents a scheme to amplify dispersion signal of Rydberg atomic microwave detection system, using a quantum weak measurement technique together with improved dimensionless pointer. The scheme effectively mitigates the impact of technical noise and can be used to achieve a measurement precision close to the limit set by atomic shot noise in theory. Compared with the superheterodyne method based on transmission detection, our scheme has been experimentally proved to have a sensitivity increase of 56 dB. In this work, the Rydberg dispersion signal amplification mechanism offers a approach to enhance microwave detection sensitivity, which also facilitates deeper investigations into its dynamic processes and further applications of this mechanism in quantum communication and quantum control.
