iqm.qiskit_iqm.iqm_backend.IQMBackendBase#

class iqm.qiskit_iqm.iqm_backend.IQMBackendBase(architecture: QuantumArchitectureSpecification | DynamicQuantumArchitecture, **kwargs)#

Abstract base class for various IQM-specific backends.

Parameters:: architecture (DynamicQuantumArchitecture) – Description of the quantum architecture associated with the backend instance.

Attributes

`target`	A `qiskit.transpiler.Target` object for the backend.
`architecture`
`name`	Name of the backend.
`description`	Optional human-readable description.
`online_date`	Date that the backend came online.
`backend_version`	Version of the backend being provided.

Methods

`index_to_qubit_name`(index)	Given a quantum register index, return the corresponding IQM-style qubit name.
`qubit_name_to_index`(name)	Given an IQM-style qubit name, return the corresponding index in the register.

property target: Target#

A qiskit.transpiler.Target object for the backend.

qubit_name_to_index(name: str) → int | None#

Given an IQM-style qubit name, return the corresponding index in the register.

Parameters:: name (str) – IQM-style qubit name (‘QB1’, ‘QB2’, etc.)
Returns:: Index of the given qubit in the quantum register, or None if the given qubit is not found on the backend.
Return type:: int | None

index_to_qubit_name(index: int) → str | None#

Given a quantum register index, return the corresponding IQM-style qubit name.

Parameters:: index (int) – Qubit index in the quantum register.
Returns:: Corresponding IQM-style qubit name (‘QB1’, ‘QB2’, etc.), or None if the given index does not correspond to any qubit on the backend.
Return type:: str | None
