ATOMIQ: A block based, highly flexible and user friendly extension for ARTIQ — •Christian Hölzl1, Suthep Pomjaksilp2, Thomas Niederprüm2, and Florian Meinert1 — 15th Institute of Physics, Universität Stuttgart, Germany — 2Department of Physics and research center OPTIMAS, Rheinland-Pfälzische Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau, Germany
The demand for fast and reliable experiment control hardware and software has increased dramatically with recent advances in quantum technology. For the fast cycle times required in atom computing and simulation, highly flexible yet nanosecond-precise systems are needed. By providing fully open source software and hardware the ARTIQ/Sinara ecosystem has propelled itself to a leading solution for ion and neutral atom based quantum experiments. However, the out-of-the-box software functionality is heavily limited and requires major time commitment from the end user. Our ATOMIQ extension aims to mitigate this problem by adding a user-friendly abstraction layer. By using a block-based experiment structure, we achieve a drastic reduction of boilerplate without compromising the speed of ARTIQ. Combining simple primitives through multiple inheritance patterns to graspable lab devices like lasers ensures easy extensibility. ATOMIQ further aims to tightly implement data management and non-real-time devices, such as environmental sensors, which are becoming increasingly important in the ever-growing complexity of quantum devices. By providing this flexible interface to lab infrastructure it is also easy to implement ATOMIQ in an already existing system.
