Cluster State Computing via Non Destructive Imaging of Single Molecules
Abstract
We propose to construct tools needed to create entangled cluster states and to implement one way quantum computing protocols using arrays of NaRb molecules trapped in a micro tweezer array as a hardware platform. Our approach will leverage the recent extraordinary progress on preparing and manipulating ultracold bialkali molecules and their inherent, long range entangling interaction. We will extend the techniques used to produce defect free registers of single neutral atoms trapped in tightly focused laser beams to heteronuclear molecules. A novel and key technology development will be the implementation of single molecule non destructive imaging via optical birefringence. Spatially resolved single qubit gates will be achieved via a combination of light induced energy shifts and applied microwave frequency electric fields. We will develop switchable entangling operations via dipole dipole interactions and shelving to an auxiliary state. These tools will be used to measure and model the fidelity of entanglement and cluster state generation for arrays of singly trapped molecules.
