Quantum Gate

Rotate about Z

\begin{bmatrix}{ e}^{\left(\frac{- i\cdot ϕ}{2}\right)}&0\\0&{ e}^{\left(\frac{ i\cdot ϕ}{2}\right)}\end{bmatrix}

RZ 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 Z gate.

Parameters

: Angle to rotate the state by, in radians.
