摘要
We present a realization of weak measurement for the arrival time of a single photon in virtue of the simultaneous characteristic of biphotons. Our experimental setup is based on a Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer. A birefringent crystal is used to perform weak measurement between a preselected and a postselected measurement by two polarizers. The extreme weak values lie well outside of the eigenvalues of the observable.
