An open source framework for programming photonic quantum computers
Through a simple object-oriented python API, Perceval provides tools for building a circuit with linear optics components, defining single-photon source, manipulating Fock states, running simulation, reproducing published experimental papers and experiment new generation of quantum algorithms. It aims to be a companion tool for developing photonics circuits while simulating on their design, modeling their ideal and real-life behaviour, and proposing a normalized interface to control them through the concept of backends. Perceval has been developed as a complete toolkit for […]
