Abstract
We propose a general scheme for inducing resonant exchange between spins or pseudo-spins of unmatched levels via periodic driving. The basic idea is illustrated for a system of two heteronuclear atoms, for which analytical results are provided for the effective spin exchange (SE) interaction strength. It is then applied to the mixture of 23Na and 87Rb atoms with a radio-frequency (rf) or microwave field near-resonant to the mismatched Zeeman level spacings. SE interaction engineered this way is applicable to ultracold quantum gas mixtures involving spinor Bose-Bose, Bose-Fermi, and Fermi-Fermi atoms.
