ShiftPhase

ShiftPhase(phase, channel, name=None)

GitHub(opens in a new tab)

Bases: qiskit.pulse.instructions.instruction.Instruction

The shift phase instruction updates the modulation phase of proceeding pulses played on the same Channel. It is a relative increase in phase determined by the phase operand.

In particular, a PulseChannel creates pulses of the form

Re[exp(i2πfjdt+ϕ)dj].Re[\exp(i 2\pi f jdt + \phi) d_j].

The ShiftPhase instruction causes ϕ\phi to be increased by the instruction’s phase operand. This will affect all pulses following on the same channel.

The qubit phase is tracked in software, enabling instantaneous, nearly error-free Z-rotations by using a ShiftPhase to update the frame tracking the qubit state.

Instantiate a shift phase instruction, increasing the output signal phase on channel by phase [radians].

Parameters

  • phase (Union[complex, ParameterExpression]) – The rotation angle in radians.
  • channel (PulseChannel) – The channel this instruction operates on.
  • name (Optional[str]) – Display name for this instruction.

Methods

append

ShiftPhase.append(schedule, name=None)

Return a new Schedule with schedule inserted at the maximum time over all channels shared between self and schedule.

Parameters

  • schedule (Union['Schedule', 'Instruction']) – Schedule or instruction to be appended
  • name (Optional[str]) – Name of the new schedule. Defaults to name of self

Returns

A new schedule with schedule a this instruction at t=0.

Return type

Schedule

draw

ShiftPhase.draw(dt=1, style=None, filename=None, interp_method=None, scale=1, plot_all=False, plot_range=None, interactive=False, table=True, label=False, framechange=True, channels=None)

Plot the instruction.

Parameters

  • dt (float) – Time interval of samples
  • style (Optional[SchedStyle]) – A style sheet to configure plot appearance
  • filename (Optional[str]) – Name required to save pulse image
  • interp_method (Optional[Callable]) – A function for interpolation

  • plot_all (bool) – Plot empty channels
  • plot_range (Optional[Tuple[float]]) – A tuple of time range to plot
  • interactive (bool) – When set true show the circuit in a new window (this depends on the matplotlib backend being used supporting this)
  • table (bool) – Draw event table for supported instructions
  • label (bool) – Label individual instructions
  • framechange (bool) – Add framechange indicators
  • channels (Optional[List[Channel]]) – A list of channel names to plot

Returns

A matplotlib figure object of the pulse schedule

Return type

matplotlib.figure

insert
