How to recreate Google Quantum Plots?
Summarize this article with:
I'm analysing plotting styles in quantum computing papers (specifically Google Quantum publications) and trying to understand how the circuit diagrams and plots are created. Here's an example: https://preview.redd.it/2ea8nu1kfy7g1.png?width=2134&format=png&auto=webp&s=04e3b99d918ec8f96f56c9e20b49d41569cb1ea3 The figures show: Embedded qubit lattice diagrams with coloured nodes in diamond/grid patterns Labeled measurement gadgets (qubits labeled A, B, C, D, etc.) What I've tried: Searched Cirq documentation for plotting functions Looked through matplotlib gallery for similar examples Checked Google Quantum GitHub repositories Specific questions: Are these diagrams generated programmatically (Cirq/matplotlib/other library) or created in design software? If programmatic, what libraries/functions create qubit lattice visualisations? Are there any public style guides or templates for quantum circuit visualisation? Any guidance on the tools or workflow would be helpful.
