Generate a schedule for performing a Rabi using a Gaussian pulse.

Schedule sequence

Reset – DRAG – Measure

Parameters:

  • pulse_amp – amplitude of the Rabi pulse in V.

  • pulse_duration – duration of the Gaussian shaped Rabi pulse. Corresponds to 4 sigma.

  • frequency – frequency of the qubit 01 transition.

  • qubit – the qubit on which to perform a Rabi experiment.

  • port – location on the chip where the Rabi pulse should be applied. if set to None, will use the naming convention "<qubit>:mw" to infer the port.

  • clock – name of the location in frequency space where to apply the Rabi pulse. if set to None, will use the naming convention "<qubit>.01" to infer the clock.

  • repetitions – The amount of times the Schedule will be repeated.

t1_sched(times: numpy.ndarray | float, qubit: str, repetitions: int = 1) → quantify_scheduler.schedules.schedule.Schedule[source]#

Generate a schedule for performing a \(T_1\) experiment to measure the qubit relaxation time.

Schedule sequence

Reset – pi – Idle(tau) – Measure

See section III.B.2. of Krantz et al. [KKY+19] for an explanation of the Bloch-Redfield model of decoherence and the \(T_1\) experiment.

Parameters:

  • times – an array of wait times tau between the start of pi-pulse and the measurement.

  • qubit – the name of the qubit e.g., "q0" to perform the T1 experiment on.

  • repetitions – The amount of times the Schedule will be repeated.

Returns:

An experiment schedule.

ramsey_sched(times: numpy.ndarray | float, qubit: str, artificial_detuning: float = 0, repetitions: int = 1) → quantify_scheduler.schedules.schedule.Schedule[source]#

Generate a schedule for performing a Ramsey experiment to measure the dephasing time \(T_2^{\star}\).

Schedule sequence

Reset – pi/2 – Idle(tau) – pi/2 – Measure

See section III.B.2. of Krantz et al. [KKY+19] for an explanation of the Bloch-Redfield model of decoherence and the Ramsey experiment.

Parameters:

  • times – an array of wait times tau between the start of the first pi/2 pulse and the start of the second pi/2 pulse.

  • artificial_detuning – frequency in Hz of the software emulated, or artificial qubit detuning, which is implemented by changing the phase of the second pi/2 (recovery) pulse. The artificial detuning changes the observed frequency of the Ramsey oscillation, which can be useful to distinguish a slow oscillation due to a small physical detuning from the decay of the dephasing noise.

  • qubit – the name of the qubit e.g., "q0" to perform the Ramsey experiment on.

  • repetitions – The amount of times the Schedule will be repeated.

Returns:

An experiment schedule.

echo_sched(times: numpy.ndarray | float, qubit: str, repetitions: int = 1) → quantify_scheduler.schedules.schedule.Schedule[source]#

Generate a schedule for performing an Echo experiment to measure the qubit echo-dephasing time \(T_2^{E}\).

Schedule sequence

Reset – pi/2 – Idle(tau/2) – pi – Idle(tau/2) – pi/2 – Measure

See section III.B.2. of Krantz et al. [KKY+19] for an explanation of the Bloch-Redfield model of decoherence and the echo experiment.

Parameters:

  • qubit – the name of the qubit e.g., “q0” to perform the echo experiment on.

  • times – an array of wait times. Used as tau/2 wait time between the start of the first pi/2 pulse and pi pulse, tau/2 wait time between the start of the pi pulse and the final pi/2 pulse.

  • repetitions – The amount of times the Schedule will be repeated.

Returns:

An experiment schedule.

cpmg_sched(n_gates: int, times: numpy.ndarray | float, qubit: str, variant: Literal['X', 'Y', 'XY'] = 'X', repetitions: int = 1) → quantify_scheduler.schedules.schedule.Schedule[source]#

Generate a schedule for performing a CPMG (n gates) experiment to measure the qubit dephasing time \(T_2^{CPMG}\) with dynamical decoupling.

Schedule sequence

Reset – pi/2 – [Idle(tau/(2n)) – pi – Idle(tau/2n)]*n – pi/2 – Measure

Parameters:

  • n_gates – Number of CPMG Gates. Note that n_gates=1 corresponds to an Echo experiment (echo_sched()).

  • qubit – The name of the qubit, e.g., “q0”, to perform the echo experiment on.

  • times – An array of wait times between the pi/2 pulses. The wait times are subdivided into multiple IdlePulse(time/(2n)) operations. Be aware that time/(2n) must be an integer multiple of your hardware backend grid time.

  • variant – CPMG using either pi_x (“X”), pi_y (“Y”) or interleaved pi_x/pi_y (“XY”) gates, default is “X”.

  • repetitions – The amount of times the Schedule will be repeated, default is 1.

Returns:

An experiment schedule.

readout_calibration_sched(qubit: str, prepared_states: List[int], repetitions: int = 1, acq_protocol: Literal['SSBIntegrationComplex', 'ThresholdedAcquisition'] = 'SSBIntegrationComplex') → quantify_scheduler.schedules.schedule.Schedule[source]#

A schedule for readout calibration. Prepares a state and immediately performs a measurement.

Parameters:

This function allows specifying a Rabi experiment directly using the pulse-level abstraction. For most applications we recommend using rabi_sched() instead.
