class qxmt.devices.ibmq_device.IBMQDevice(platform, device_name, backend_name, n_qubits, shots, random_seed=None, logger=<Logger qxmt.devices.ibmq_device (INFO)>)

Bases: BaseDevice

IBMQ device implementation for quantum computation. This class provides a concrete implementation of the BaseDevice for IBM Quantum.

Parameters:

  • platform (str)

  • device_name (str)

  • backend_name (str | None)

  • n_qubits (int)

  • shots (int | None)

  • random_seed (int | None)

  • logger (Any)

__init__(platform, device_name, backend_name, n_qubits, shots, random_seed=None, logger=<Logger qxmt.devices.ibmq_device (INFO)>)

Initialize the IBMQ device.

Parameters:

  • platform (str) – platform name (ex: pennylane, qulacs, etc.)

  • device_name (str) – device name provided by the platform (ex: default.qubit, default.tensor, etc.)

  • backend_name (Optional[str]) – backend name for the IBM Quantum real device

  • n_qubits (int) – number of qubits

  • shots (Optional[int]) – number of shots for the quantum circuit

  • random_seed (Optional[int]) – random seed for the quantum device

  • logger (Any) – logger instance

Return type:

None
