class kqcircuits.simulations.xmons_direct_coupling_sim.XMonsDirectCouplingSim(layout, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Simulation

Initialize a Simulation.

The initializer parses parameters, creates a top cell, and then calls self.build to create the simulation geometry, followed by self.create_simulation_layers to process the geometry so it is ready for exporting.

Parameters:

layout – the layout on which to create the simulation

Keyword Arguments:

**kwargs –

Any parameter can be passed as a keyword argument.

In addition, cell can be passed as keyword argument. If cell is supplied, it will be used as the top cell for the simulation. Otherwise, a new cell will be created. See Simulation.from_cell for creating simulations from existing cells.

produce_qubits()

A dedicated function to be used also by the corresponding simulation object.

Assumes following attributes:

  • arm_width_a

  • arm_width_b

  • qubit_spacing

  • fluxline_type

  • rr_cpl_width

  • junction_type

  • layout

  • insert_cell

build()[source]

Build simulation geometry.

This method is to be overridden, and the overriding method should create the geometry to be simulated and add any ports to self.ports.

PCell parameters:

  • qubit_spacing (Double) - Qubit spacing, default=3, unit=μm

  • arm_width_b (Double) - Qubit 2 arm width, default=66, unit=μm

  • waveguide_length (Double) - Length of waveguide stubs or distance between couplers and waveguide turning point, default=100

  • cpl_width (Double) - Qubit RR coupler width, default=24, unit=μm

  • junction_inductances (List) - Qubit junction inductances, default=[1.35e-08, 1.35e-08, 1.35e-08], unit=[H, H, H]

  • junction_capacitances (List) - Qubit junction capacitances, default=[1e-16, 1e-16, 1e-16], unit=[F, F, F]

  • arm_width_a (Double) - Qubit 1 and 3 arm width, default=24, unit=μm

  • rr_cpl_width (List) - RR to QB coupler width (um for each RR), default=[24, 24, 24]

  • fluxline_type (String) - Fluxline Type, default=none, choices=['none', 'Fluxline Standard', 'Fluxline Straight']

  • junction_type (String) - Junction Type, default=Sim, choices=['No Squid', 'Manhattan', 'Manhattan Single Junction', 'Sim']
