Installation
Copy and paste OrensteinLab from the Google Drive folder to the site-packages folder. The path of the folder can be accessed by the following command in Jupyter Notebook.
import numpy
print(numpy.__path__)
numpy is a very common python package. And it is automatically installed inside the site-packages folder.
The following packages need to be installed to support OrensteinLab.
lakeshore
zhinst
InstrumentKit
pyanc350
There is also a pyanc350 folder in the Google Drive folder. Please use this one to replace the pyanc350 folder in the site-packages folder.
Before using OrensteinLab, please remember to update the “configuration.txt” file in the module. The device ID of the lockin and the port ID of the ESP301 controller are required.
Instrument
This section includes the home-written control programs of several instruments. These instruments don’t have any developed python module/package to control, so I have to write the control programs by myself.
Instrument.OptiCool.OptiCool_Control
Control all the necessary operations of the OptiCool.
connect_opticool()
No input. Return the telnet object connecting to the socket server of the OptiCool.
read_temperature(telnetObj)
Input the telnet object returned by connect_opticool(). Return an array [temperature, status]. The status means the temperature approaching status, which can be “Standby”, “Tracking”, “Chasing”, “Near” and “Stable”.
set_temperature(telnetObj, set_point, rate, mode)
Input 4 arguments, telnet object, temperature set point, ramp rate, mode. The highest ramp rate is 10 K/min. The mode has two options.
0: Fast settle
1: No overshoot
Return “command received”.
read_field(telnetObj)
Input the telnet object. Return an array [field, status]. The status means the field approaching status, which can be “Ramping (Driven)” and “Holding (Driven)”.
set_field(telnetObj, set_point, rate, approach_mode, 1)
Input 5 arguments, telnet object, field set point, ramp rate, approach mode, field mode. The highest ramp rate is 110 Oe/s. The approach mode has three options.
0: Linear
1: No overshoot
2: Oscillate
The field mode has only one option in the OptiCool, but has two options in the PPMS and MPMS3. In this way, just use the value 1 for the field mode, which means “Driven”.
Return “command received”.
disconnect_opticool(telnetObj)
Close the telnet object returned by connect_opticool().
Instrument.Lakeshore.Lakeshore336
Control all the necessary operations of the Lakeshore 336 temperature controller.
initialization_lakeshore336()
Return the instrument object (inst).
read_temperature(inst)
Input the instrument object obtained from initialization_lakeshore336(). Return the temperature.
read_setpoint(inst)
Input the instrument object. Return the temperature setpoint.
set_setpoint(inst, output, set_temperature)
Input 3 arguments, instrument object, output port number (1, 2, 3, 4) and temperature setpoint.
read_ramp(inst)
Input the instrument object. Return an array [on_off, ramp rate].
set_ramp(inst, output, on_off, ramp_rate)
Input 4 arguments, instrument object, output port number (1, 2, 3, 4), on_off (0, 1) and ramp rate.
close_lakeshore336(inst)
Input the instrument object. Close the connection with the lakeshore 336.
Operation
This section includes some basic single-step operations frequently used in lab. The related instruments have developed python module/package to support, so the purpose of this section is just to make some basic operations easier to realize.
Operation.ESP301
Simple operations related to the ESP301 controller.
SingleStageMove(axis_index, pos, go_back)
Corotate(axis_index_1, pos_1, go_back_1, axis_index_2, pos_2, go_back_2)
Read_Position(axis_index)
Balance_PID_single(incident_polarization_angle, P, tolerance, balance_axis_index, channel_index, time_constant)
P can be extracted from Find_balance_angle in the Measurement section.
Operation.Attocube.v2.Attocube_v2
Simple operations related to the attocube controller. Note: attocube axis index: ‘x’, ‘y’ and ‘z’.
Read_Position(axis_index)
SingleStageMove(axis_index, real_target, tolerance, go_back)
DoubleStageMove(axis_index_1, real_target_1, tolerance_1, go_back_1, axis_index_2, real_target_2, tolerance_2, go_back_2)
Measurement
This section will include all the measurements in lab. However, different experiments may have different measurements to take, so I would like to create a subsection for everyone, so that group members can create their own measurement control programs. My measurement programs can work as examples. Please feel free to refer to them.
Measurement.Yue.Measurement
Lockin_time_record(channel_index, recording_time, time_constant, filename_head)
Find_balance_angle(incident_polarization_angle, axis_index, start_pos, step_size, num_of_steps, go_back, channel_index, time_constant, filename_head)
Corotate_measurement(num_of_steps, axis_index_1, start_pos_1, step_size_1, go_back_1, axis_index_2, start_pos_2, step_size_2, go_back_2, channel_index, time_constant, filename_head)
Pump_probe(axis_index, start_pos, step_size, num_of_steps, go_back, channel_index, time_constant, filename_head)
Mapping(filename_head)
Balance_PID_single(incident_polarization_angle, P, tolerance, balance_axis_index, channel_index, time_constant)
P can be extracted from Find_balance_angle.
Field_scan(set_points, ramp_rate, balance_axis_index, channel_index, time_constant, balance_channel_index, filename_head)
Set points need to be an array.
Field_scan_PID(set_points, ramp_rate, balance_axis_index, channel_index, time_constant, P, balance_channel_index, balance_time_constant, filename_head)
Set points need to be an array. P can be extracted from Find_balance_angle.
