Abstract
We introduce a method to synthetically engineer the range of dipolar interactions in tweezer atom arrays by effectively modifying the modes of the electromagnetic vacuum with far-detuned relay atoms. We derive equations of motion for the atoms of interest after adiabatic elimination of the relay atoms. We show the effectiveness of the scheme for realistic experimental parameter regimes with circular and low-angular-momentum Rydberg atom states.
