spectral.voigt_two_linear_known(freq_list, decay_rate, thermal_width)

Returns the Voigt profile for a two-level system in the linear regime.

The Voigt profile is the convolution of a Lorentzian with a Gaussian, and describes the absorption lineshape for a thermal two-level system.

Parameters

Name Type Description Default
freq_list np.ndarray List of frequency detunings from resonance (in 2pi Gamma). required
decay_rate float Spontaneous decay rate of the transition (in 2pi Gamma). required
thermal_width float Width of the lineshape in the same units as decay rate (in 2pi Gamma). required
