        Timestepper for the d-dimensional (`d ∈ {1, 2, 3}`) Cahn-Hilliard
        reaction-diffusion equation on periodic boundary conditions. This model
        is related to the Allen-Cahn equation. In 1d, it reads

        ```
            uₜ = ν ∂ₓₓ (c₃ u³ + c₁ u − γ uₓₓ)
        ```

        with `ν` the diffusivity, `c₁` the first order coefficient, `c₃` the
        third order coefficient, and `γ` the gamma parameter. The state always
        only has one channel. In higher dimensions, the equation reads

        ```
            uₜ = ν Δ (c₃ u³ + c₁ u - γ Δu)
        ```

        Since the Laplace operator is self-multiplied, there will be spatial
        mixing.

        **Arguments:**

        - `num_spatial_dims`: The number of spatial dimensions `d`.
        - `domain_extent`: The size of the domain `L`; in higher dimensions
            the domain is assumed to be a scaled hypercube `Ω = (0, L)ᵈ`.
        - `num_points`: The number of points `N` used to discretize the
            domain. This **includes** the left boundary point and **excludes**
            the right boundary point. In higher dimensions; the number of points
            in each dimension is the same. Hence, the total number of degrees of
            freedom is `Nᵈ`.
        - `dt`: The timestep size `Δt` between two consecutive states.
        - `diffusivity`: The diffusivity `ν`.
        - `gamma`: The gamma parameter `γ`.
        - `first_order_coefficient`: The first order coefficient `c₁`.
        - `third_order_coefficient`: The third order coefficient `c₃`.
        - `dealiasing_fraction`: The fraction of the highest wavenumbers to
            dealias. Default is `1/2` because the default polynomial has a
            highest degree of 3.
        - `order`: The order of the Exponential Time Differencing Runge
            Kutta method. Must be one of {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}. The option `0` only
            solves the linear part of the equation. Use higher values for higher
            accuracy and stability. The default choice of `2` is a good
            compromise for single precision floats.
        - `num_circle_points`: How many points to use in the complex contour
            integral method to compute the coefficients of the exponential time
            differencing Runge Kutta method. Default: 16.
        - `circle_radius`: The radius of the contour used to compute the
            coefficients of the exponential time differencing Runge Kutta
            method. Default: 1.0.
