Quantum Gate

Rotate about Y

\begin{bmatrix}\cos\left(\frac{ θ}{2}\right)&-\sin\left(\frac{ θ}{2}\right)\\\sin\left(\frac{ θ}{2}\right)&\cos\left(\frac{ θ}{2}\right)\end{bmatrix}

RY Gate

This gate applies a rotation of radians about the -axis to a single qubit.

It can also be defined by:

where is the Pauli Y gate.

Parameters

: Angle to rotate the state by, in radians.
