….IN AN INFINITE UNIVERSE ANYTHING THAT COULD BE IMAGINED MIGHT SOMEWHERE EXIST.                                                                   - Dean Koontz Quantum computing is an emerging domain that is yet to enter our lives. However, the researchers are working hard to bring it into existence. Quantum computing can make the impossible possible. There are some problems that even supercomputers can’t solve. Quantum computers will however have the potential to solve such problems. In the same way that bits are used in a classical computer, quantum computers use quantum bits or qubits which can store information in the quantum form. A qubit can be 0 or 1, or a superposition of both 0 and 1. Experts expect quantum computing to help us understand biology and evolution, cure cancer, and even take steps to reverse climate change. Imagine you have four bits. Together, those four bits can have one of 16 possible combinations, such as 1011.  The unique powers of quantum computation may g

  Quantum computers stand to transform the world of computers. They have the capacity to be greatly more powerful than our current digital devices, with the power to solve important computational problems and simulate complex physical systems with unmatched efficiency. Like memories are an important component for computers, that’s like quantum memories are also essential components for quantum computers, a new generation of data processors that follow the laws of quantum mechanics and these laws help to overcome the limitations of classical computers. Quantum computers are expected to be much faster and more powerful than their traditional analogue as information is calculated in qubits (the fundamental unit of computation in quantum computing)  in quantum computers while the older units are bits which used in classical computers, can represent both 0 and 1 at the same time. Quantum memory is used as a key element in information processing, such as optical  quantum computing  and  qu

Being the first generation of Quantum Computing it’s important to understand where it came from and what it exactly is. Max Planck, a scientist who introduced us to the ideology of the existence of energy and matter in individual units, and later its studies were continued by other great scientists. The particles are independent; the movement of elementary particles is inherently random and unpredictable; they may behave like waves or particles depending on the conditions. He also added that the more precisely you measure the more flawed the measurement becomes, which means it is not certain. For most of our history, human technology has consisted of basic elements until there was an evolution in the brains of humans over time. This advancement caused a huge impact on the work done by humans and by a machine ‘Computer’.   Quantum Computing depicts an advanced and better archetype in the field of computation. They are different from digital electronic computers based on transistors. The
