Open Quantum Design: TrICal (Trapped-Ion Calculator)

versions License: Apache 2.0 Ruff

Warning

TrICal is still currently in heavy development, breaking changes might be made! Refer to Features in development.

Given a description of a trapped-ion experiment with:

  • \(N\) ions in a chain
    • \(J\) specified levels each
  • \(M\) lasers
  • \(L\) motional modes

Goal

  1. TrICal constructs the system Hamiltonian.
  2. Applies approximations to the system Hamiltonian.
  3. Connects with a quantum simulation backend (e.g. QuTiP) to perform simulations.

TrICal is developed under Open Quantum Design (OQD) as a component of the OQD open-source full stack quantum computer with trapped-ions.
