Abstract

We demonstrate deterministic preparation of arbitrary two-component product states of fermionic 6^6Li atoms in an 8×\times8 optical tweezer array, achieving motional ground-state fidelities above 98.5%98.5\,\%. Leveraging the large differential magnetic moments for spin-resolution, with parallelized site- and number-resolved control, our approach addresses key challenges for low-entropy quantum state engineering. Combined with high-fidelity spin-, site-, and density-resolved readout within a single 20μs20\,\mathrm{\mu s} exposure, and 3s3\,\mathrm{s} experimental cycles, these advances establish a fast, scalable, and programmable architecture for fermionic quantum simulation.
