Group report: Precision spectroscopy and quantum information with trapped molecules — •Brandon Furey, Stefan Walser, Zhenlin Wu, Guanqun Mu, Rene Nardi, and Philipp Schindler — Institut für Experimentalphysik, Universität Innsbruck, Österreich
The quantum molecules group at the University of Innsbruck utilizes a range of innovative advances in molecular spectroscopy and quantum logic spectroscopy (QLS) to study molecular rovibrational structure and explore quantum information processing with trapped molecules. The efforts of our group are divided into three projects. The first is pump-probe recoil spectroscopy, where we measure the rovibrational population dynamics excited by a pump pulse by mapping them to the electronic state of an atomic ion via QLS. The second project investigates state-dependent force spectroscopy, where an optical tweezer generates a state-dependent force on a trapped molecule. Our third project is demonstrating superpositions of rotational states in a diatomic molecular ion built using stimulated Raman transitions driven by two beams from an optical frequency comb. This could pave the way for using quantum error correction to realize the use of trapped molecules for quantum information or memory. We are interested in creating the rotational superposition states that form the codewords of a truncated Z3 ⊂ Z6 linear rotor code. In order to demonstrate ultrafast light-matter interaction in our system, we have measured the photodissociation spectrum of CaOH+ using an optical parametric amplifier.
