• Abstract summary: We advance the SPAM of individual molecules assembled from constituent atoms trapped in optical tweezer arrays. 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.

• Abstract: Polar molecules are a quantum resource with rich internal structure that can be coherently controlled. The structure, however, also makes the state preparation and measurement (SPAM) of molecules challenging. We advance the SPAM of individual molecules assembled from constituent atoms trapped in optical tweezer arrays. Sites without NaCs molecules are eliminated using high-fidelity Cs atom detection, increasing the peak molecule filling fraction of the array threefold. We site-selectively initialize the array in a rotational qubit subspace that is insensitive to differential AC Stark shifts from the optical tweezer. Lastly, we detect multiple rotational states per experimental cycle by imaging atoms after sequential state-selective dissociations. These demonstrations extend the SPAM capabilities of molecules for quantum information, simulation, and metrology.

  We propose D3FG, a functional-group-based diffusion model for pocket-specific molecule generation and elaboration. D3FG decomposes molecules into two categories of components: functional groups defined as rigid bodies and linkers as mass points. In the experiments, our method can generate molecules with more realistic 3D structures, competitive affinities toward the protein targets, and better drug properties.

We propose a quantum annealing approach to MU by formulating it as a High-order Unconstrained Binary Optimization (HUBO) Results and performances obtained with quantum annealers are compared with state of art classical solvers.
