  "abstract": "We uncover a new mechanism for realizing three-component quantum droplets in ultracold Bose gases, where only one inter-species interaction is attractive. In this scheme, the inter-species attraction leads to a self-bound binary droplet, and the third component joins through Rabi coupling with one component of the binary droplet. We find that a stronger Rabi coupling leads to a larger fraction of the third component, but also destabilizes the entire droplet due to the involvement of more repulsive forces. Such instability can be remedied by a finite detuning between the Rabi-coupled components. We demonstrate these results in realistic Na-Rb mixtures, using both thermodynamic analyses and numerical simulations based on extended Gross-Pitaevskii equations. Our work outlines a general route for stabilizing multi-component droplets by bridging an existing binary droplet with additional components via suitable single-particle fields.",
