Description
"The enhancement of weak signals and the detection of hypothetical particles facilitated by quantum amplification are crucial for advancing fundamental physics and its practical applications. Recently, it was experimentally observed that a magnetic field can be amplified by using nuclear spins under Markovian noise [H. Su et al., New constraints on axion-mediated spin interactions using magnetic amplification, Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 191801 (2024).]. Here, we theoretically propose amplifying the magnetic-field signal by using nuclear spins by the quantum Zeno effect (QZE). Under identical conditions, we demonstrate that compared to the Markovian case the amplification of the weak magnetic field can be enhanced by a factor about e1=2 under a Gaussian noise. Moreover, through numerical simulations we determine the optimal experimental parameters for amplification conditions. This work shows that the combination of the QZE and spin amplification effectively enhances the amplification of the weak magnetic field. Our findings may provide valuable guidance for the design of experiments on establishing new constraints of dark matter and exotic interactions in the near future.
