Laboratory set-up for non-linear spectroscopy

Class representing laboratory setup for non-linear spectroscopic experiments. It holds information about pulse shapes and polarizations.

Pulses can be set in time- and/or frequency-domain. Consistency between the domains is not checked nor enforced. Consistent conversion between domains is provided by convenience routines [TO BE IMPLEMENTED]

Parameters:

nopulses (int) – Number of pulses in the experiment. Default is 3.

property number_of_pulses: Any#
reset_pulse_shape() None[source]#

Recalculates the pulse shapes

set_pulse_shapes(axis: Any, params: Any) None[source]#

Sets the pulse properties

Pulse shapes or spectra are set in this routine. If axis is of TimeAxis type, the parameters are understood as time domain, if axis is of FrequencyAxis type, they are understood as frequency domain.

Parameters:
  • axis (TimeAxis or FrequencyAxis) – Quantarhei time axis object, which specifies the values for which pulse properties are defined. If TimeAxis is specified, the parameters are understood as time domain, if FrequencyAxis is specified, they are understood as frequency domain.

  • params (dictionary) –

    Dictionary of pulse parameters. The parameters are the following: ptype is the pulse type with possible values Gaussian and numeric. Time domain pulses are specified with their center at t = 0.

    Gaussian pulse has further parameters amplitude, FWHM, and frequency with obvious meanings. FWHM is speficied in fs, frequency is specified in energy units, while amplitude is in units of [energy]/[transition dipole moment]. The formula for the lineshape is

    \[\rm{shape}(\omega) = \frac{2}{\Delta}\sqrt{\frac{\ln(2)}{\pi}} \exp\left\{-\frac{4\ln(2)\omega^2}{\Delta^2}\right\}\]

    The same formulae are used for time- and frequency domain definitions. For time domain, \(t\) should be used in stead of \(\omega\).

    numeric pulse is specified by a second parameters function which should be of DFunction type and specifies line shape around zero frequency.

Examples

>>> import quantarhei as qr
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> lab = LabSetup()
...
>>> # Time axis around 0
>>> time = qr.TimeAxis(-500.0, 1000, 1.0, atype="complete")

Gaussian pulse shape in time domain

>>> pulse2 = dict(ptype="Gaussian", FWHM=150, amplitude=1.0)
>>> params = (pulse2, pulse2, pulse2)
>>> lab.set_pulse_arrival_times([0.0, 0.0, 0.0])
>>> lab.set_pulse_phases([0.0, 0.0, 0.0])  # these settings are compulsory
>>> lab.set_pulse_shapes(time, params)

Testing the pulse shape

>>> dfc = lab.get_pulse_envelop(1, time.data)
>>> pl = plt.plot(time.data, dfc)
>>> plt.show()

>>> lab.set_pulse_phases([0.0, 0.0, 0.0])
>>> lab.set_pulse_shapes(freq, params)

Testing the pulse shape

>>> # getting differnt frequency axis
>>> freq2 = qr.FrequencyAxis(-1003, 100, 20.0)
>>> # and reading spectrum at two different sets of points
>>> dfc1 = lab.get_pulse_spectrum(1, freq.data)
>>> dfc2 = lab.get_pulse_spectrum(1, freq2.data)
>>> pl1 = plt.plot(freq.data, dfc1)
>>> pl2 = plt.plot(freq2.data, fdc2)
>>> plt.show()

We plot in two different sets of points.

class quantarhei.spectroscopy.labsetup.labsetup(nopulses: int = 3)[source]#

Bases: LabSetup

labsetup is just a different name for the class LabSetup.

All details about usage of the labsetup can be found in the documentation of the LabSetup

class quantarhei.spectroscopy.labsetup.LabField(labsetup: Any, k: int)[source]#

Bases: object

Electric field of a single laser pulse defined within a LabSetup.

Objects of this class are linked to their parent LabSetup. Properties can be changed locally (affecting only this field) or globally from the LabSetup (affecting all linked LabField objects).

Parameters:
  • lab (LabSetup) – Parent laboratory setup object.

  • index (int) – Zero-based index of the pulse within the LabSetup.

Examples

Only the number of pulses has to be specified when LabSetup is created.

>>> lab = LabSetup(nopulses=3)

We can ask for a LabField object right away, even before field parameters are set.

>>> lf = LabField(lab, 1)

This object has all parameters “empty”

>>> lf.pol
array([ 0.,  0.,  0.])
>>> lf.om
0.0
>>> lf.tc
0.0

>> lf.phi 0.0

The ‘field’ property, however, refuses to return values

>>> print(lf.field)
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
quantarhei.exceptions.QuantarheiError: The property 'field' is not initialited.

Nor it can be set

>>> lf.field = 10.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
quantarhei.exceptions.QuantarheiError: The property 'field' is protected and cannot be set.

The LabField properties will be initialited through the LabSetup object. The only rule to follow is that arrival times of the pulses have to be specified before the pulse shape.

>>> lab.set_pulse_arrival_times([0.0, 0.0, 100.0])
>>> time = TimeAxis(-500.0, 1000, 1.0, atype="complete")
>>> pulse2 = dict(ptype="Gaussian", FWHM=150, amplitude=1.0)
>>> params = (pulse2, pulse2, pulse2)
>>> lab.set_pulse_shapes(time, params)

Everything else can be set before we ask for the field’s time dependence. The LabField object can be created even

>>> lab.set_pulse_polarizations(pulse_polarizations=(X,X,X),
...                             detection_polarization=X)
>>> lab.set_pulse_frequencies([1.0, 1.0, 1.0])
>>> lab.set_pulse_phases([0.0, 1.0, 0.0])
>>> lf = LabField(lab, 2)
>>> print(lf.get_phase() == lab.phases[2])
True
>>> lf.set_phase(3.14)
>>> print(lf.get_phase() == lab.phases[2])
True
>>> lab.phases[2] = 6.28
>>> print(lf.get_phase() == lab.phases[2])
True
>>> print(lf.get_center() == lab.pulse_centers[2])
True
>>> lf.set_center(12.0)
>>> print(lab.pulse_centers[2])
12.0
>>> print(lf.get_frequency() == lab.omega[2])
True
>>> lf.set_frequency(12.0)
>>> print(lab.omega[2])
12.0
>>> lf.get_polarization()
array([ 1.,  0.,  0.])
>>> lab.e[2,:] = [0.0, 1.0, 0.0]
>>> lf.get_polarization()
array([ 0.,  1.,  0.])
>>> lf.set_polarization([0.0, 0.0, 1.0])
>>> lab.e[2,:]
array([ 0.,  0.,  1.])

# we also have some quick access attributes

>>> print(lf.phi)
6.28
>>> lf.phi = 1.2
>>> lf.phi
1.2
>>> print(lf.phi == lab.phases[2])
True
>>> print(lf.tc)
12.0
>>> lf._center_changed
False
>>> lf.tc = 10.0
>>> lf.tc
10.0

>> lf._center_changed True

>>> print(lf.tc == lab.pulse_centers[2])
True
>>> print(lf.om)
12.0
>>> lf.om = 10.0
>>> lf.om
10.0
>>> print(lf.om == lab.omega[2])
True
>>> lf.pol
array([ 0.,  0.,  1.])
>>> lab.e[2,:] = [0.0, 1.0, 0.0]
>>> lf.pol
array([ 0.,  1.,  0.])
>>> lf.pol = [0.0, 0.0, 1.0]
>>> lab.e[2,:]
array([ 0.,  0.,  1.])

Most importantly, we can access the field values

>>> fld = lf.field
>>> fld.shape
