The WACQT Quantum Technology Testbed proudly announces the release of Tergite, the open-source software stack designed for the WACQT quantum computer. Tergite is a custom middleware that allows end-users to send their circuits to the 25-qubit chip, developed for the WACQT core project.
Although it is primarily designed to run with real hardware, it is possible to test the stack on a pulse-level simulator on your own computer. This makes it easy to use, for example, in workshop and classes even when the hardware is undergoing maintenance.
“We are thrilled to make Tergite available to the public,” says Pontus Vikstål. “This release underscores our commitment to pushing the boundaries of quantum technology and making cutting-edge tools accessible to researchers in Sweden and worldwide.”
The development of Tergite has been made possible through the generous support of several key contributors and sponsors, including the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, OpenSuperQPlus and NordIQuEst. The next release is planned for this December 2024.
