The general definition of a qubit as the quantum state of a two-level quantum system.In quantum computing, a qubit (/ ˈ k juː b ɪ t /) or quantum bit is a basic unit of quantum information—the quantum version of the classic binary bit physically realized with a two-state device.
A physical qubit is a physical device that behaves as a two-state quantum system, used as a component of a computer system. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] A logical qubit is a physical or abstract qubit that performs as specified in a quantum algorithm or quantum circuit [ 3 ] subject to unitary transformations , has a long enough coherence time to be usable by ...
Yoshihisa Yamamoto and K. Igeta propose the first physical realization of a quantum computer, including Feynman's CNOT gate. [17] Their approach uses atoms and photons and is the progenitor of modern quantum computing and networking protocols using photons to transmit qubits and atoms to perform two-qubit operations.
This list contains quantum processors, also known as quantum processing units (QPUs).Some devices listed below have only been announced at press conferences so far, with no actual demonstrations or scientific publications characterizing the performance.
In August 2020, quantum engineers working for Google reported the largest chemical simulation on a quantum computer – a Hartree–Fock approximation with Sycamore paired with a classical computer that analyzed results to provide new parameters for the 12-qubit system. [14] [15] [16]
In August 2022, Baidu released its plans to build a fully integrated top to bottom quantum computer which incorporated superconducting qubits. This computer will be all encompassing with hardware, software and applications fully integrated. This is a first in the world of quantum computing and will lead to ground-breaking advancements. [60]
