RGate

class qiskit.circuit.library.RGate(theta, phi, label=None)

GitHub

Bases: Gate

Rotation θ around the cos(φ)x + sin(φ)y axis.

Can be applied to a QuantumCircuit with the r() method.

Circuit symbol:

     ┌──────┐
q_0:R(ϴ)
     └──────┘

Matrix Representation:

R(θ,ϕ)=eiθ2(cosϕx+sinϕy)=(cos(θ2)ieiϕsin(θ2)ieiϕsin(θ2)cos(θ2))\providecommand{\th}{\frac{\theta}{2}}\\\begin{split}R(\theta, \phi) = e^{-i \th \left(\cos{\phi} x + \sin{\phi} y\right)} = \begin{pmatrix} \cos\left(\th\right) & -i e^{-i \phi} \sin\left(\th\right) \\ -i e^{i \phi} \sin\left(\th\right) & \cos\left(\th\right) \end{pmatrix}\end{split}

Create new r single-qubit gate.
