Usage and reproduction

The data can be reproduced and plotted using Minimal-state-preparation-times-for-silicon-spin-qubits-source-code  [2]:

Reproducing the data

Warning: Some of the intermediate data files (not uploaded to Zenodo) produced have sizes on the order of 50 GB.

Warning: We expect the data collection scripts to take several weeks to months to run on CPUs with approximately 64 cores.

Warning: The data collection scripts likely need more than 50 GB of RAM (or SWAP) to store the intermediate data. The exact memory requirements have not been benchmarked. That said, the data was collected on a device with 2 TB of RAM.

Alternatively, all of the data can be collected in series by executing

python scripts/data_collection/collect_all_data.py

in the root directory of this repository. Alternatively, if you only wish to collect the data for Figure X in our article, then you can execute

# Replace X with the figure number
python scripts/data_collection/figure_X.py 

in the root directory of this repository.

Plotting the data

All the figures can be plotted from the collected data by executing

python scripts/plotting/plot_all_data.py

in the root directory of this repository. Alternatively, if you only wish to reproduce Figure X in our article then you can execute

# Replace X with the figure number
python scripts/plotting/figure_X.py 

in the root directory of this repository.
