cirq.SupportsPhase

An effect that can be phased around the Z axis of target qubits.

Methods

_phase_by_

View source

Returns a phased version of the effect.

Specifically, returns an object with matrix P U P^-1 (up to global phase) where U is the given object's matrix and P = Z(qubit_index)**(2 * phase_turns). For example, an X gate phased by 90 degrees would be a Y gate.

Args
phase_turns The amount to phase the gate, in fractions of a whole turn. Multiply by 2π to get radians.
qubit_index The index of the target qubit the phasing applies to.

Returns
The phased gate or operation.
