AQTBackend#

AQTBackend(api_token, device_instance, workspace)[source]#

This class instantiates a VirtualBackend using an AQT backend. This allows easy access to AQT backends through the qrisp interface.

Using this backend requires addtional dependencies: pip install qiskit-aqt-provider.

Parameters:

api_tokenstr: An API token for AQT ARNICA.
device_instancestr: The device instance of the AQT backend such as “ibex” or “simulator_noise”. For an up-to-date list, see the AQT ARNICA website.
workspacestr: The workspace for a company or project.

Examples

We evaluate a QuantumFloat multiplication on the 12-qubit AQT IBEX.

>>> from qrisp import QuantumFloat
>>> from qrisp.interface import AQTBackend
>>> # qrisp_ibex = AQTBackend(api_token = "YOUR_AQT_ARNICA_TOKEN", device_instance = "simulator_noise", workspace = "aqt_simulators")
>>> qrisp_ibex = AQTBackend(api_token = "YOUR_AQT_ARNICA_TOKEN", device_instance = "ibex", workspace = "YOUR_COMPANY_OR_PROJECT_NAME")
>>> a = QuantumFloat(2)
>>> a[:] = 2
>>> b = a*a
>>> b.get_measurement(backend = qrisp_ibex, shots = 100)
