这项研究比较了当今学术研究人员可用的两个常见的量子计算平台：IBM Q-Experience和马里兰大学的IonQ。动手测试利用简单的两个量子比特电路的实现，测试了Pauli X、Y和Z单量子比特门以及CNO2+量子比特门，并比较了结果以及用户体验。在为这一令人兴奋的新领域的新知识工作者计划量子计算培训时，用户体验和界面必须简单明了，以帮助用户理解。此外，我们还演示了当在经典计算机中读取输出时，量子计算机的结果如何丢失一些信息，因为量子计算机的操作维度比经典计算机可以解释的更多。这是用ZX和XZ门来演示的，它们似乎给出了相同的结果；然而，使用矩阵记数法的数学方法，两个答案之间的相位差异在它们的矢量中显示出来，它们之间的距离为180。
This research compares and contrasts two commonly available quantum computing platforms available today to academic researchers: the IBM Q-Experience and the University of Maryland’s IonQ. Hands-on testing utilized the implementation of a simple two qubit circuit and tested the Pauli X, Y, and Z single-qubit gates as well as the CNOT 2+ qubit gate and compared the results, as well as the user experience. The user experience and the interface must be straightforward to help the user’s understanding when planning quantum computing training for new knowledge workers in this exciting new field. Additionally, we demonstrate how a quantum computer’s results, when the output is read in the classical computer, loses some of its information, since the quantum computer is operating in more dimensions than the classical computer can interpret. This is demonstrated with the ZX and XZ gates which appear to give the same result; however, using the mathematics of matrix notation, the phase difference between the two answers is revealed in their vectors, which are 180apart.
