Aqt Backend #353

Closed dbretaud closed 4 years ago

dbretaud commented 4 years ago

New Backend to connect to the Alpine Quantum Technologies (AQT) devices.

-> A documentation was released mid-February: https://www.aqt.eu/aqt-json-tutorial/#json-syntax -> Access keys can be requested by creating an account at: https://gateway-portal.aqt.eu

->Only tested on the online simulator but the code should be the same for the hardware ->This backend is a trapped ion quantum computer so only accepts Rx,Ry and MS gates

Looks good to me. There is no real need for mapper as the trapped ion machines have usually full connectivity but I guess it could be useful for later updates

Thanks for fixing the issues I missed and as usual for your work.
