non-zero nuclear spin, and thus allow us to encode qubits using this degree of freedom. In the case that we have sufficient intensity to produce a large AC Stark shift at the same frequency as the final lattice, we can first load the gas into an off-resonance optical lattice in the $^1$S$_0$ state, and then adiabatically tune the coupling closer to resonance with the $^3$P$_0$ state in order to load the gas carefully into the lower dressed potential. A high-fidelity quantum register can then be formed by creating a band-insulator state [@esslinger04], and we gain substantially over the case where bosons would be used for a quantum register, as the temperature need only be substantially smaller than the bandgap, and not an interaction energy for the band insulator to form. In addition, if a harmonic trapping potential is added to the system, most defects in the state will be localised near the edges of the trap [@calarco04]. The resulting state can be further improved upon by applying additional techniques, such as filtering of the state to improve the fidelity [@rablloading] or fault-tolerant loading of atoms by transfer of atoms between two internal states, one trapped by the lattice and the
