Abstract
There are many quantum computing systems, some of which are still being developed today. To develop quantum calculation systems, IBM provides access to the 5-qubit quantum computer ‘IBM Quantum Experience’. Quantum computers must deal with the loss of information due to environmental disturbances. Quantum systems cannot be completely isolated. Noise can be a cause of different errors in the quantum circuits. In this work, we observe distortions in quantum circuits and investigate the noise stability of different quantum gates. We investigate a method for calculating the quantum state of the superconducting qubit, used in ‘IBM Quantum Experience’, after an interaction with a quantum operator.
