• Abstract: Due to their intrinsic electric dipole moments and rich internal structure, ultracold polar molecules are promising candidate qubits for quantum computing and for a wide range of quantum simulations. Their long-lived molecular rotational states form robust qubits while the long-range dipolar interaction between molecules provides quantum entanglement. Using a molecular optical tweezer array, single molecules can be moved and separately addressed for qubit operations using optical and microwave fields, creating a scalable quantum platform. Here, we demonstrate long-range dipolar spin-exchange interactions in pairs of CaF molecules trapped in an optical tweezer array. We control the anisotropic interaction and realize the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ quantum XY model by encoding an effective spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ system into the rotational states of the molecules. We demonstrate a two-qubit (two-molecule) gate to generate entanglement deterministically, an essential resource for all quantum information applications. Employing interleaved tweezer arrays, we demonstrate high fidelity single site molecular addressability.

  We present the first realisation of a microwave-driven entangling gate between two molecules. We show that the magic-wavelength trap preserves the entanglement, with no measurable decay over 0.5 s. The extension of precise quantum control to complex molecular systems will allow their additional degrees of freedom to be exploited across many domains of quantum science.

We site-selectively initialize the array in a rotational qubit subspace that is insensitive to differential AC Stark shifts from the optical tweezer. We detect multiple rotational states per experimental cycle by imaging atoms after sequential state-selective dissociations.

  Electrical control of spins at the nanoscale offers architectural advantages in spintronics. Recent demonstrations of electric-field (E-field) sensitivities in molecular spin materials are tantalising. E-field sensitivities reported so far are rather weak, prompting the question of how to design molecules with stronger spin-electric couplings.

  We propose an analog simulator for discrete 2D quantum chemistry models based on cold atoms in optical lattices. We first analyze how to simulate simple models, like the discrete versions of H and H$+$, using a single fermionic atom. We then show that a single bosonic atom can mediate an effective Coulomb repulsion between two fermions, leading to the analog of molecular Hydrogen in two dimensions.
