qiskit.pulse.SetFrequency

class SetFrequency(frequency, channel, name=None)

GitHub

Set the channel frequency. This instruction operates on PulseChannel s. A PulseChannel creates pulses of the form

Re[exp(i2πfjdt+ϕ)dj].Re[\exp(i 2\pi f jdt + \phi) d_j].

Here, ff is the frequency of the channel. The instruction SetFrequency allows the user to set the value of ff. All pulses that are played on a channel after SetFrequency has been called will have the corresponding frequency.

The duration of SetFrequency is 0.

Creates a new set channel frequency instruction.

Parameters

  • frequency (Union[float, ParameterExpression]) – New frequency of the channel in Hz.
  • channel (PulseChannel) – The channel this instruction operates on.
  • name (Optional[str]) – Name of this set channel frequency instruction.

__init__

__init__(frequency, channel, name=None)

Creates a new set channel frequency instruction.

Parameters

  • frequency (Union[float, ParameterExpression]) – New frequency of the channel in Hz.
  • channel (PulseChannel) – The channel this instruction operates on.
  • name (Optional[str]) – Name of this set channel frequency instruction.

Methods

__init__(frequency, channel[, name])Creates a new set channel frequency instruction.
append(schedule[, name])Return a new Schedule with schedule inserted at the maximum time over all channels shared between self and schedule.
assign_parameters(value_dict)Modify and return self with parameters assigned according to the input.
ch_duration(*channels)Return duration of the supplied channels in this Instruction.
ch_start_time(*channels)Return minimum start time for supplied channels.
ch_stop_time(*channels)Return maximum start time for supplied channels.
draw([dt, style, filename, interp_method, …])Plot the instruction.
flatten()Return itself as already single instruction.
insert(start_time, schedule[, name])Return a new Schedule with schedule inserted within self at start_time.
shift(time[, name])Return a new schedule shifted forward by time.

Return type

Command

draw

draw(dt=1, style=None, filename=None, interp_method=None, scale=1, plot_all=False, plot_range=None, interactive=False, table=True, label=False, framechange=True, channels=None)

Plot the instruction.

Parameters

  • dt (float) – Time interval of samples
  • style (Optional[SchedStyle]) – A style sheet to configure plot appearance
  • filename (Optional[str]) – Name required to save pulse image

  • plot_all (bool) – Plot empty channels
  • plot_range (Optional[Tuple[float]]) – A tuple of time range to plot
  • interactive (bool) – When set true show the circuit in a new window (this depends on the matplotlib backend being used supporting this)
  • table (bool) – Draw event table for supported instructions
  • label (bool) – Label individual instructions
  • framechange (bool) – Add framechange indicators
  • channels (Optional[List[Channel]]) – A list of channel names to plot
