Strawberry Fields
Strawberry Fields is a full-stack Python library for constructing, simulating, and executing programs on photonic quantum computers. Design quantum algorithms and execute them directly on Xanadu's next-generation quantum hardware.
Key Features
- Quantum hardware.
Strawberry Fields integrates seamlessly with Xanadu Cloud, providing direct access to programmable quantum computers including the X-Series processors. - Built in applications.
High-level functions for solving problems including graph and network optimization, machine learning, and chemistry. - World class simulators and compilers.
Includes a suite of high-performance simulators—based on cutting edge algorithms—to compile and simulate photonic algorithms. - Machine learning with TensorFlow support.
Train and optimize your quantum programs with our end-to-end differentiable TensorFlow backend. - Explore different photonic architectures.
From time-domain multiplexing, to Gaussian Boson Sampling and bosonic error correction codes, explore different architectures and systems through our tutorials and demonstrations.
