[docs] class FineDrag(BaseExperiment, RestlessMixin): r"""An experiment that performs fine characterizations of DRAG pulse coefficients. # section: overview :class:`FineDrag` runs fine DRAG characterization experiments (see :class:`.RoughDrag` for the definition of DRAG pulses). Fine DRAG proceeds by iterating the gate sequence Rp - Rm where Rp is a rotation around an axis and Rm is the same rotation but in the opposite direction and is implemented by the gates Rz - Rp - Rz where the Rz gates are virtual Z-rotations, see Ref. [1]. The executed circuits are of the form .. parsed-literal:: ┌─────┐┌────┐┌───────┐┌────┐┌───────┐ ┌──────┐ ░ ┌─┐ q_0: ┤ Pre ├┤ Rp ├┤ Rz(π) ├┤ Rp ├┤ Rz(π) ├ ... ┤ Post ├─░─┤M├ └─────┘└────┘└───────┘└────┘└───────┘ └──────┘ ░ └╥┘ meas: 1/══════════════════════════════════════════════════════╩═ 0 Here, "Pre" and "Post" designate gates that may be pre-appended and and post-appended, respectively, to the repeated sequence of Rp - Rz - Rp - Rz gates. When calibrating a pulse with a target rotation angle of π the Pre and Post gates are Id and RYGate(π/2), respectively. When calibrating a pulse with a target rotation angle of π/2 the Pre and Post gates are RXGate(π/2) and RYGate(π/2), respectively. We now describe what this experiment corrects by following Ref. [2]. We follow equations 4.30 and onwards of Ref. [2] which state that the first-order corrections to the control fields are .. math:: \begin{align} \bar{\Omega}_x^{(1)}(t) = &\, 2\dot{s}^{(1)}_{x,0,1}(t) \\ \bar{\Omega}_y^{(1)}(t) = &\, 2\dot{s}^{(1)}_{y,0,1}(t) - s_{z,1}^{(1)}(t)t_g\Omega_x(t) \\ \bar{\delta}^{(1)}(t) = &\, \dot{s}_{z,1}^{(1)}(t) + 2s^{(1)}_{y,0,1}(t)t_g\Omega_x(t) + \frac{\lambda_1^2 t_g^2 \Omega_x^2(t)}{4} \end{align} Here, the :math:`s` terms are coefficients of the expansion of an operator :math:`S(t)` that generates a transformation that keeps the qubit sub-space isolated from the higher-order states. :math:`t_g` is the gate time, :math:`\Omega_x(t)` is the pulse envelope on the in-phase component of the drive and :math:`\lambda_1` is a parameter of the Hamiltonian. For additional details please see Ref. [2]. As in Ref. [2] we now set :math:`s^{(1)}_{x,0,1}` and :math:`s^{(1)}_{z,1}` to zero and set :math:`s^{(1)}_{y,0,1}` to :math:`-\lambda_1^2 t_g\Omega_x(t)/8`. This results in a Z angle rotation rate of :math:`\bar{\delta}^{(1)}(t)=0` in the equations above and defines the value for the ideal :math:`\beta` parameter. In Qiskit pulse, the definition of the DRAG pulse is .. math:: \Omega(t) = \Omega_x(t) + i\beta\,\dot{\Omega}_x(t)\quad\Longrightarrow\quad \Omega_y(t)= \beta\,\dot{\Omega}_x(t) which implies that :math:`-\lambda_1^2 t_g/4` is the ideal :math:`\beta` value. We now assume that there is a small error :math:`{\rm d}\beta` in :math:`\beta` such that the instantaneous Z-angle error induced by a single pulse is .. math:: \bar\delta(t) = {\rm d}\beta\, \Omega^2_x(t) We can integrate :math:`\bar{\delta}(t)`, i.e. the instantaneous :math:`Z`-angle rotation error, to obtain the total rotation angle error per pulse, :math:`{\rm d}\theta`: .. math:: {\rm d}\theta = \int\bar\delta(t){\rm d}t = {\rm d}\beta \int\Omega^2_x(t){\rm d}t If we assume a Gaussian pulse, i.e. :math:`\Omega_x(t)=A\exp[-t^2/(2\sigma^2)]` then the integral of :math:`\Omega_x^2(t)` in the equation above results in :math:`A^2\sigma\sqrt{\pi}`. Furthermore, the integral of :math:`\Omega_x(t)` is :math:`A\sigma\sqrt{\pi/2}=\theta_\text{target}`, where :math:`\theta_\text{target}` is the target rotation angle, i.e. the area under the pulse. This last point allows us to rewrite :math:`A^2\sigma\sqrt{\pi}` as :math:`\theta^2_\text{target}/(2\sigma\sqrt{\pi})`. The total :math:`Z` angle error per pulse is therefore .. math:: {\rm d}\theta= \int\bar\delta(t){\rm d}t={\rm d}\beta\,\frac{\theta^2_\text{target}}{2\sigma\sqrt{\pi}} Here, :math:`{\rm d}\theta` is the :math:`Z` angle error per pulse. The qubit population produced by the gate sequence shown above is used to measure :math:`{\rm d}\theta`. Indeed, each gate pair Rp - Rm will produce a small unwanted :math:`Z`-rotation out of the :math:`ZX` plane with a magnitude :math:`2\,{\rm d}\theta`. The total rotation out of the :math:`ZX` plane is then mapped to a qubit population by the final Post gate. Inverting the relation above after cancelling out the factor of two due to the Rp - Rm pulse pair yields the error in :math:`\beta` that produced the rotation error :math:`{\rm d}\theta` as .. math:: {\rm d}\beta=\frac{\sqrt{\pi}\,{\rm d}\theta\sigma}{ \theta_\text{target}^2}. This is the correction formula in the FineDRAG Updater. # section: analysis_ref :class:`.ErrorAmplificationAnalysis` # section: reference .. ref_arxiv:: 1 1612.00858 .. ref_arxiv:: 2 1011.1949 """ @classmethod def _default_experiment_options(cls) -> Options: r"""Default values for the fine amplitude experiment.
