Propagation step function optimised for one-off time evolution events, such as hard pulses or slices of shaped pulses. For large Liouvillians, this function computes the action by a matrix exponential on a vector without computing the matrix exponential.
Contents
Syntax
rho=step(spin_system,L,rho,time_step)
Arguments
L - Liouvillian or Hamiltonian to be used for propagation
rho - state vector or density matrix to be propagated
time_step - length of the time step to take
Outputs
rho - state vector or density matrix
Examples
See the source code of shaped_pulse_xy.m and most NMR pulse sequences (cosy.m, hsqc.m, and others) for examples of this function being used.
Notes
- The sequence is programmed with a rather peculiar order of algebraic operations. This was carefully optimised to ensure best possible performance under a variety of scenarios (parallelisation, GPUs, large sparse arrays) in Matlab.
- Long-term propagation under a static Liovillian should be handled with evolution.m or krylov.m functions instead.
