Transition Strength Measurements to Guide Magic Wavelength Selection in Optically Trapped Molecules.

摘要: Optical trapping of molecules with long coherence times is crucial for many protocols in quantum information and metrology. However, the factors that limit lifetimes trapped remain elusive require improved understanding underlying molecular structure. Here we show measurements vibronic line strengths weakly deeply bound ${^{88}\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}$ molecules, combined ab initio calculations, allow unambiguous identification vibrational numbers. This, turn, enables construction refined excited potential energy curves, informing selection magic wavelengths facilitate coherence. We demonstrate Rabi oscillations between far-separated states persist nearly 100 ms.
