Pulser

The Pulser backend features a basic integration with the pulse-level programming interface Pulser. This backend offers for now few simple operations which are translated into a valid, non time-dependent pulse sequence. In particular, one has access to:

  • analog rotations: AnalogRx and AnalogRy blocks
  • free evolution blocks (basically no pulse, just interaction): AnalogWait block
  • a block for creating entangled states: AnalogEntanglement
  • digital rotation Rx and Ry
