In Amazon Braket, a device represents a QPU or simulator that you can call to run quantum
tasks. Amazon Braket provides access to QPU devices from IonQ, IQM,
QuEra, and Rigetti, three on-demand
simulators, three local simulators, and one embedded simulator. For all devices, you can find
further device properties, such as device topology, calibration data, and native gate sets, on
the Devices tab of the Amazon Braket console or by means of
the GetDevice API. When constructing a circuit with the simulators, Amazon Braket
currently requires that you use contiguous qubits or indices. If you are working with the
Amazon Braket SDK, you have access to device properties as shown in the following code
example.
from braket.aws import AwsDevice from braket.devices import LocalSimulator device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:::device/quantum-simulator/amazon/sv1') #SV1 # device = LocalSimulator() #Local State Vector Simulator # device = LocalSimulator("default") #Local State Vector Simulator # device = LocalSimulator(backend="default") #Local State Vector Simulator # device = LocalSimulator(backend="braket_sv") #Local State Vector Simulator # device = LocalSimulator(backend="braket_dm") #Local Density Matrix Simulator # device = LocalSimulator(backend="braket_ahs") #Local Analog Hamiltonian Simulation # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:::device/quantum-simulator/amazon/tn1') #TN1 # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:::device/quantum-simulator/amazon/dm1') #DM1 # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/ionq/Harmony') #IonQ # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/ionq/Aria-1') #IonQ # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/ionq/Aria-2') #IonQ # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/ionq/Forte-1') #IonQ # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:eu-north-1::device/qpu/iqm/Garnet') #IQM Garnet # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/quera/Aquila') #QuEra Aquila # device = AwsDevice('arn:aws:braket:us-west-1::device/qpu/rigetti/Aspen-M-3') #Rigetti Aspen-M-3 # get device properties device.properties
