Abstract

Precise control over rotational angular momentum is at the heart of recent advances in quantum chemistry, quantum simulation, and quantum computation with ultracold bialkali molecules. Each rotational state comprises a rich manifold of hyperfine states arising from combinations of rotation and nucle...

Highlights

-Closed loop of 4 states in 87Rb133Cs identified with minimal population leakage under simultaneous microwave coupling.

-Optimal set of 3 states identified for realising an iSWAP quantum computing protocol.

-A simple 3-level heuristic was developed to rapidly rank transitions in dense hyperfine manifolds.

-Graph-theoretic framework enables rapid identification of isolated state networks for ultracold molecules.
