Optical tweezer arrays of polar molecules promise to be a new quantum science platform. They leverage the rich internal structure and long-range interactions available in molecules and the single-particle control available in programmable tweezer arrays.
In this talk, I will report on recent advances from our group on this front, including the creation of defect-free arrays, implementing a two-qubit gate, and laser-cooling towards the quantum motional ground state.
