CPMG sequence duration scales with number of pulses #58

Closed andbe91 closed 6 years ago

andbe91 commented 6 years ago

The distance between the two pi/2 pulses is not equal to the sequence duration parameters. image

Moreover, the distance gets longer when adding pi pulses to the sequence. image

Is this the intended behavior?

It depends if you define the pulses to be “Edge-to-edge” (checkbox in the GUI), or “Center-to-center”. “Edge-to-edge” tries to make the qubit free evolution time between pulses correct (typically what you want), whereas “Center-to-center” assumes the pulses to be instantaneous.

I see, thanks for the clarification. Closing this issue.
