Commandline application to calibrate the WACQT quantum computers automatically

Tergite Automatic Calibration

A commandline application to calibrate the WACQT quantum computers automatically.

This project contains a calibration supervisor, a collection of calibration schedules and a collection of post-processing and analysis routines. It is developed and tested on WACQT Quantum Computer at Chalmers University of Technology.

This project is developed by a core group of collaborators.
Chalmers Next Labs AB (CNL) takes on the role of managing and maintaining this project.

Note: The Tergite stack is developed on a separate version control system and mirrored on GitHub. If you are reading this on GitHub, then you are looking at a mirror.

Quick Start

Dependencies

• Ensure you have conda installed. (You could simply have python +3.12 installed instead.)
• Ensure you have redis server running
• The standard port for a redis server is 6379, so, this is going to be filled in the .env configuration later.

redis-server

Installation

• Clone the repo
• If you are developing on another server e.g. the development server, please replace the url to clone

git clone [e-mail]:tergite/tergite-autocalibration.git

• Create conda environment

conda create -n tac -y python=3.12 -y
conda activate tac

• Install the application

cd tergite-autocalibration
pip install -e .

• Copy the .example.env file to .env and update the environment variables there appropriately.
• Check out the section about configuration about which other configuration files have to be edited.

cp .example.env .env

• Start the automatic calibration

acli start

• For more help on other commands, type:

acli --help

Documentation

The documentation is maintained using MkDocs Material. Everytime there is a release, you can find the documentation from the release on https://tergite.github.io/tergite-autocalibration.

To preview the documentation for the branch you're currently working on you first need to install the project with documentation dependencies (only needed once):

pip install -e '.[docs]'

Then start the live preview server of the documentation from the root of the repository:

mkdocs serve

and open the URL shown in the terminal (typically http://localhost:8000/) in your browser.

If you are interested to edit the documentation, please check out the documentation section in the contribution guidelines. There is also a page in the documentation to help you with writing better documentation.
