cirq.neutral_atoms.ConvertToNeutralAtomGates

Attempts to convert gates into native Atom gates.

Inherits From: PointOptimizer

cirq.neutral_atoms.ConvertToNeutralAtomGates(
    ignore_failures=False
) -> None

First, checks if the given operation is already a native neutral atom operation.

Second, checks if the operation has a known unitary. If so, and the gate is a 1-qubit or 2-qubit gate, then performs circuit synthesis of the operation. The 2-qubit gates are decomposed using CZ gates because CZ gates are the highest fidelity 2-qubit gates for neutral atoms.

Third, attempts to cirq.decompose to the operation.

Fourth, if ignore_failures is set, gives up and returns the gate unchanged. Otherwise raises a TypeError.

ignore_failures If set, gates that fail to convert are forwarded unchanged. If not set, conversion failures raise a TypeError.

    op: cirq.ops.Operation

optimization_at(
    circuit: "cirq.Circuit",
    index: int,
    op: "cirq.Operation"
) -> Optional['cirq.PointOptimizationSummary']

Describes how to change operations near the given location.

For example, this method could realize that the given operation is an X gate and that in the very next moment there is a Z gate. It would indicate that they should be combined into a Y gate by returning PointOptimizationSummary(clear_span=2, clear_qubits=op.qubits, new_operations=cirq.Y(op.qubits[0]))

Args
circuit The circuit to improve.
index The index of the moment with the operation to focus on.
op The operation to focus improvements upon.

Returns
A description of the optimization to perform, or else None if no change should be made.
