Class Documentation

class blackbird::MeasureHomodyne : public blackbird::Operation

Represents the Homodyne measurement. For more details, see the Strawberry Fields convention page.

Homodyne phase parameter \(\phi\) accessible via:

• \(\phi\): MeasureHomodyne->f1

Public Functions

inline MeasureHomodyne(intvec m)

Constructor to automatically initialize a Homodyne measurement acting on mode m

By default, if no quadrature angle is provided, we assume the measurement is in X.

Parameters

m – vector<int> containing mode the measurement acts on

inline MeasureHomodyne(floatvec phi, intvec m)

Constructor to automatically initialize a Homodyne measurement acting on mode m

Parameters

• phi – vector<double> containing the measurement phase

• m – vector<int> containing mode the measurement acts on

inline MeasureHomodyne(complexvec phi, intvec m)

Constructor that throws an error if complex parameters are provided.

Parameters

• phi – vector<double> parameters

• m – mode measurement acts on

Throws

invalid_argument – operation must have real arguments

inline MeasureHomodyne(intvec phi, intvec m)

Constructor that throws an error if integer parameters are provided.

Parameters

• phi – vector<int> parameters

• m – mode measurement acts on

Throws

invalid_argument – operation must have real arguments
