Ultrasensitive Beam Deflection Measurement via Interferometric
... Aside from the fundamental physics interest in weak values, it has been realized that they also are useful. If we consider the spin of the system as a small signal, the fact that the use of weak values maps this small signal onto a large shift of a measuring device’s pointer may be seen as an amplif ...

Retroreflector
A retroreflector (sometimes called a retroflector or cataphote) is a device or surface that reflects light back to its source with a minimum of scattering. In a retroreflector an electromagnetic wavefront is reflected back along a vector that is parallel to but opposite in direction from the wave's source. The angle of incidence at which the device or surface reflects light in this way is greater than zero, unlike a planar mirror, which does this only if the mirror is exactly perpendicular to the wave front, having a zero angle of incidence.
