drive

Classes:

  • DetuningMapModulator

    A weighted detuning for the Detuning Map Modulator (DMM).

  • Drive

    The drive Hamiltonian acting over a duration.

DetuningMapModulator(waveform: Waveform, weights: dict[Any, float]) dataclass

A weighted detuning for the Detuning Map Modulator (DMM).

Parameters:

  • waveform

    (Waveform) –

    The waveform for this detuning. Must be negative for all times.

  • weights

    (dict[Any, float]) –

    A dictionary associating detuning weights to qubits. Each weight must be in [0, 1], where 0 means that the waveform is ignored for this qubit and 1 means that the waveform is fully applied to this qubit.

See https://docs.pasqal.com/pulser/tutorials/dmm/ for details on DMM.

Drive(*, amplitude: Waveform, detuning: Waveform | None = None, dmm: DetuningMapModulator | None = None, phase: float = 0.0)

The drive Hamiltonian acting over a duration.

The Drive specifies the control parameters for the time-dependent drive Hamiltonian in the Rydberg model (see https://docs.pasqal.com/qoolqit/get_started/qoolqit_model/ for details),

H_drive(t) = Σᵢ [Ω(t)/2 (cos φ(t) σˣᵢ - sin φ(t) σʸᵢ)] - Σᵢ [δ(t) + εᵢ Δ(t)] nᵢ

representing: - Amplitude Ω(t): Controls the Rabi frequency that drives qubits. - Detuning δ(t): Controls the energy offset of the Rydberg state. - dmm εᵢ, Δ(t): Detuning Map Modulator (DMM) for additional qubit-specific detunings. - Phase φ: Global phase applied to the amplitude term.

Parameters:

  • amplitude

    (Waveform) –

    Time-dependent amplitude waveform Ω(t) representing the Rabi frequency. Controls the strength of the coupling between ground and Rydberg states. Must be positive for all times.

  • detuning

    (Waveform | None, default: None ) –

    Time-dependent detuning waveform δ(t) representing the energy offset of the Rydberg state relative to resonance. If None, defaults to zero detuning (Delay waveform) for the duration of the amplitude.

  • dmm

    (DetuningMapModulator | None, default: None ) –

    DetuningMapModulator instance for additional negative detuning waveform Δ(t) ≤ 0 applied to individual qubits as specified by its weights attribute εᵢ.

  • phase

    (float, default: 0.0 ) –

    Global phase φ applied to the amplitude term in the Hamiltonian. Defaults to 0.0 (no phase).

Raises:

  • TypeError

    If amplitude or detuning are not Waveform instances.

  • ValueError

    If the amplitude waveform has negative values.

Note
  • All arguments must be passed as keyword arguments.
  • If amplitude and detuning have different durations, the shorter one is automatically extended with a Delay to match the longer duration.
  • DetuningMapModulator waveform must be negative for all times (≤ 0) as it represents energy shifts below the resonance.
Example

from qoolqit import Drive from qoolqit.waveforms import Constant, Ramp

Simple constant drive

drive = Drive(amplitude=Constant(10.0, 1.5))

Drive with time-varying amplitude and detuning

amp = Ramp(5.0, 0.0, 2.0) det = Constant(5.0, -1.0) drive = Drive(amplitude=amp, detuning=det, phase=0.5)

Attributes:

  • amplitude (Waveform) –

    The amplitude waveform in the drive.

  • detuning (Waveform) –

    The detuning waveform in the drive.

  • dmm (DetuningMapModulator | None) –

    Detuning Map Modulator (DMM) applied to individual qubits.

  • phase (float) –

    The phase value in the drive.
