Introduction to Quantum Gates
Quantum gates are fundamental building blocks in quantum computing. Single qubit gates operate on a single qubit, modifying its state. In this presentation, we will explore several important single qubit gates.	Image Source

Quantum Not Gate
The Quantum Not gate is analogous to the classical NOT gate. It flips the state of a qubit, mapping 0 to 1 and 1 to 0. The matrix representation of the Quantum Not gate is [0 1, 1 0].

Pauli-X Gate
The Pauli-X gate is another name for the Quantum Not gate. It is represented by the matrix [0 1, 1 0]. The Pauli-X gate flips the state of a qubit along the X-axis of the Bloch sphere.	Image Source

Pauli-Y Gate
The Pauli-Y gate is represented by the matrix [0 -i, i 0]. It flips the state of a qubit along the Y-axis of the Bloch sphere. The Pauli-Y gate introduces a phase shift of π/ 2.	Image Source

Pauli-Z Gate
The Pauli-Z gate is represented by the matrix [1 0, 0 -1]. It flips the sign of the phase of a qubit. The Pauli-Z gate leaves the state of the qubit along the X and Y axes unchanged.	Image Source

Hadamard Gate
The Hadamard gate is represented by the matrix [1 1, 1 -1]/ √2. It creates superposition by transforming the basis states. The Hadamard gate maps |0⟩ to (|0⟩ + |1⟩)/ √2 and |1⟩ to (|0⟩ - |1⟩)/ √2.

Phase Gate
The Phase gate is represented by the matrix [1 0, 0 e^(iθ)]. It introduces a phase shift of θ to the state of a qubit. The Phase gate does not change the probability amplitudes of the basis states.	Image Source
