Molecular State Readout via Strong Optical Fields

Abstract

The goal of this project was to read demonstrate the feasibility of reading out individual molecular states with a combination of strong optical fields and ion trapping techniques. To date, there is no general method for reading out the quantum state of "realistic" polyatomic molecules, and a polarized optical tweezer, in combination with a deep ion trap, should be able to realize such a system. This would unlock the vast potential of polyatomic molecules as a coherently controllable quantum system.
