CZGate

class CZGate(label=None, ctrl_state=None)

Controlled-Z gate.

This is a Clifford and symmetric gate.

Circuit symbol:

q_0: ─■─
      │
q_1: ─■─

Matrix representation:

\[\begin{split}CZ\ q_1, q_0 = |0\rangle\langle 0| \otimes I + |1\rangle\langle 1| \otimes Z = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & -1 \end{pmatrix}\end{split}\]

In the computational basis, this gate flips the phase of the target qubit if the control qubit is in the \(|1\rangle\) state.

Create new CZ gate.
