Investigation of Förster resonant energy transfer between polar molecules and Rydberg atoms — •Martin Zeppenfeld and Ferdinand Jarisch — MPI für Quantenoptik, Hans-Kopfermann-Str. 1, 85748 Garching

A quantum hybrid system composed of polar molecules and Rydberg atoms provides wideranging opportunities for future experiments, ranging from control and readout of molecular states to quantum information processing. As a first step, we have investigated Förster resonant energy transfer between molecules and Rydberg atoms at room temperature [1]. This includes a detailed analysis of Rydberg states involved in the molecule-Rydberg-atom interactions via mm-wave state transfer and investigation of electric field dependent collisions. We will also discuss progress on the next-generation experiment involving cold molecules and ultracold atoms.
