Speeding up Measurements in Spectroscopy Applications with the HDAWG Arbitrary Waveform Generator

TheZurich Instruments HDAWGmulti-channel Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) comprises of the highest channel density available in its class and has been designed for improved signal generation up to 750 MHz bandwidth. TheHDAWGis available with either 4 or 8 DC-coupled, single-ended analog output channels with 16 bit vertical resolution. The outputs can be separately switched between a direct mode, with maximized bandwidth and greater noise performance, and an amplified mode, that enhances the signal amplitude to a maximum of 5 Vpp。在维持整个16位输出分辨率的同时,确保每个通道准确设置同步使用两个标记。

LabOne®offers a modern programming concept capable of combining the flexibility and performance of an AWG with effortless usage of a function generator. The platform-independent LabOne User Interface (UI) and a choice of APIs for LabVIEW®, MATLAB®, C, .NET, and Python allow effortless measurement automation and rapid integration into an existing control environment.

HDAWG Applications

  • Radar/Lidar
  • NMR and EPR spectroscopy
  • Quantum computing
  • Semiconductor testing
  • MIMO techniques in MRI and telecommunication

TheHDAWGis a high-end instrument that has been designed to meet the needs of demanding applications by extending the core AWG functionality with added waveform memory, internal oscillators, function generator functionality and a set of pulse counters.

Quantum Computing and Phased-array Radar

It is possible to automatically synchronize multiple HDAWG instruments, which can be controlled with the help of a single user interface, allowing efficient scaling of radar and quantum computing systems while decreasing complexity and the required lab space. The short 50 ns reaction time to an external trigger signal allows quantum error correction methods with great fidelity. The internal oscillators decrease waveform upload times, offer a simpler waveform definition and guarantee phase coherence. The integrated pulse counter enables simplifying setups for N-V center and trapped ion experiments.

NMR and Spectroscopy

Signals in NMR and various other spectroscopy applications occur at timescales ranging from nanoseconds up to seconds. TheHDAWGis capable of speeding up these measurements by using parametric sweeping and/or a variable sampling rate. Employing digital modulation, an arbitrary envelope can be imposed on just one or multiple carrier signals along with minimal waveform upload time while phase-coherence is maintained without extra effort.

Semiconductor Testing

波形迭代,嵌套测序和DIO控制的动态测序非常适合实现用于宽高通量测试的信号。使用功能发生器信号添加或乘以AWG信号会扩展可能性,并有助于简化和加快日常测量例程。
