Entanglement-preserving measurement of the Bell parameter on a single entangled pair
Bell inequalities represent one of the cornerstones of quantum foundations, and a fundamental tool for quantum technologies. Although a lot of effort was put in exploring and generalizing them, because of the wave function collapse it was deemed impossible to estimate the entire Bell parameter from one entangled pair, since this would involve measuring incompatible observables on the same quantum state. Conversely, here it is reported the first implementation of a new generation of Bell inequality tests, able to extract a Bell parameter value from each entangled pair and, at the same time, preserve the pair entanglement instead of destroying it. This is obtained by exploiting sequences of weak measurements, allowing incompatible observable measurements on a quantum state without collapsing its wave function. On the fundamental side, by removing the need to choose between different measurement bases our approach stretches the concept of counterfactual definiteness, since it allows measuring the entangled pair in all the bases needed for the Bell inequality test, intrinsically eliminating the issues connected with the otherwise not-chosen bases. On the practical side, after our Bell parameter measurement the entanglement within the pair remains (basically) unaltered, hence exploitable for other quantum-technology-related or foundational purposes.
期刊介绍:
Driven by advances in technology and experimental capability, the last decade has seen the emergence of quantum technology: a new praxis for controlling the quantum world. It is now possible to engineer complex, multi-component systems that merge the once distinct fields of quantum optics and condensed matter physics.
Quantum Science and Technology is a new multidisciplinary, electronic-only journal, devoted to publishing research of the highest quality and impact covering theoretical and experimental advances in the fundamental science and application of all quantum-enabled technologies.
