+# The lattice spacing and Rabi amplitudes give us a nearest neighbor interaction strength:
+# $$V_{{i},{i+1}} = \frac{C_6}{a^6} \approx 105.21 \, \text{MHz} \gg \Omega = 15.8 \, \text{MHz}$$
+# where $C_6 = 2\pi \times 862690 \, \text{MHz} \, \mu \text{m}^6$ is our van der Waals coefficient 
+# for Aquila hardware and $a$ is the lattice spacing we defined earlier.
+# Our interaction strength for next-nearest neighbors is quite low comparatively:
+# $$V_{{i},{i+2}} = \frac{C_6}{(2a)^6} \approx 1.64 \, \text{MHz} \ll \Omega = 15.8 \, \text{MHz}$$
+# The Rydberg interaction term dominates for nearest neighbor spacing, while the Rabi coupling dominates
+# for next-nearest neighbors.
+# This increases the probability of realizing a Rydberg blockade for nearest neighbors,
+# but decreases the probability of Rydberg interaction between next-nearest neighbors. 
+# So far, we're in a good position for creating a Z2 phase.
+
+# Next, we define our detuning values.

+# We start at large negative detuning values where all atoms are in the ground state.
+# Then, we transition to large positive detuning values where the Rydberg state 
+# becomes energetically favorable and inter-atomic interactions become more important.
+
+# The maximum absolute detuning value of $16.33 \, \text{MHz}$ gives us a Rydberg blockade radius 
+# $$R_b = \Bigl(\frac{C_6}{\sqrt{\Delta^2+\Omega^2}}\Bigr)^{1/6} \approx 7.88 \mu \text{m}$$
+# Typically, we define the lattice spacing such that $a < R_b < 2a$ for a good blockade approximation
+# and Z2 state probability.
+
+# Lastly, we define a set of test durations over which to execute our pulses
+# and write the instructions for our program.
