1.11 - CNOT QPU Instruction

The lecture slides are available here Download here.

---

This lecture explains the CNOT (Conditional NOT) instruction in quantum computing. It begins by explaining the fundamental concept of multi-qubit operations, highlighting that CNOT operates on two qubits akin to an "if" programming construct.

Visual representations of the CNOT operation are presented, followed by a discussion on its matrix form.

The lecture emphasizes the reversibility of CNOT, akin to the NOT operation, illustrating that applying CNOT twice can restore a multi-qubit register to its initial state.
