Source code for quaccatoo.pulsed_sim.predef_seqs

"""
This module contains predefined basic pulsed experiments inheriting from the PulsedSim class as part of the QuaCCAToo package.

Classes
-------
- Rabi: resonant pulse of varying duration, such that the quantum system will undergo periodical transitions between the excited and ground states.
- PMR: Pulsed Magnetic Resonance (PMR) experiment, composed by a single pulse where the frequency is changed such that when it corresponds to a transition in the Hamiltonian of the system, the observable will be affected.
- Ramsey: Ramsey experiment, consisting of a free evolution that causes a phase accumulation between states in the system which can be used for interferometry.
- Hahn: Hahn echo experiment, consisting of two free evolutions with a pi pulse in the middle, in order to cancel out dephasings. The Hahn echo is usually used to measure the coherence time of a quantum system, however it can also be used to sense coupled spins.
