Yttrium ion as a platform for quantum information processing
Christopher N. Gilbreth, Dmytro Filin, Marianna S. Safronova +2
Engineering large-scale quantum computers which simultaneously provide high-fidelity quantum operations, low memory errors, low crosstalk, and reasonable resource usage remains an…
A Surface-Scaffolded Molecular Qubit
Tian-Xing Zheng, M. Iqbal Bakti Utama, Xingyu Gao +24
Fluorescent spin qubits are central building blocks of quantum technologies. Placing these qubits at surfaces maximizes coupling to nearby spins and fields, enabling nanoscale sens…
Unraveling vibronic interactions in molecules functionalized with optical cycling centers
Pawel Wojcik, Haowen Zhou, Taras Khvorost +7
We report detailed characterization of the vibronic interactions between the first two electronically excited states, A and B, in SrOPh (Ph = phenyl, -C6H5) and its deuterated coun…
Vibronic coupling limits the use of high-lying electronic states in complex molecules for laser cooling
Haowen Zhou, Pawel Wojcik, Guo-Zhu Zhu +7
Laser cooling of large, complex molecules is a long-standing goal, instrumental for enabling new quantum technology and precision measurements. A primary consideration for the feas…
Bottom-up approach to scalable growth of molecules capable of optical cycling
Guanming Lao, Taras Khvorost, Antonio Macias +10
Gas-phase molecules capable of repeatable, narrow-band spontaneous photon scattering are prized for direct laser cooling and quantum state detection. Recently, large molecules inco…
Extending the large molecule limit: The role of Fermi resonance in developing a quantum functional group
Guo-Zhu Zhu, Guanming Lao, Claire E. Dickerson +4
Polyatomic molecules equipped with optical cycling centers (OCCs), enabling continuous photon scattering during optical excitation, are exciting candidates for advancing quantum in…
Laser spectroscopy of aromatic molecules with optical cycling centers: strontium (I) phenoxides
Guanming Lao, Guo-Zhu Zhu, Claire E. Dickerson +5
We report the production and spectroscopic characterization of strontium (I) phenoxide (, or SrOPh) and variants featuring electron-withdrawing groups…
Functionalizing Aromatic Compounds with Optical Cycling Centers
Guo-Zhu Zhu, Debayan Mitra, Benjamin L. Augenbraun +9
Molecular design principles provide guidelines for augmenting a molecule with a smaller group of atoms to realize a desired property or function. We demonstrate that these concepts…
High-resolution laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy of SiO and SiO in a cryogenic buffer-gas cell
Guo-Zhu Zhu, Guanming Lao, Clayton Ho +2
The electronic, laser-induced fluorescence spectrum of the transition in SiO and SiO has been recorded in a cryogenic…
Interaction between vortex beams and diatomic molecules with rotation
Guanming Lao
The interaction between vortex beam (VB) and molecule has drawn much attention in recent years, but the lack of theoretical method somehow limits its further analysis, especially w…
