Quantum Computing

2. **Quantum Computing**

**Introduction**
Quantum computing represents a revolution in computation, where quantum mechanics
principles are used to perform computations exponentially faster than classical computers.
Quantum bits (qubits) are used, which can exist in multiple states simultaneously.

**Key Technologies in Quantum Computing**


- Qubits: The fundamental unit of quantum computing.
- Quantum Gates: The operations performed on qubits.
- Quantum Algorithms: Quantum versions of classical algorithms for optimization,
cryptography, and simulation.

**Applications**
- Cryptography: Quantum key distribution (QKD) for secure communication.
- Material Science: Simulating molecules at the quantum level for drug development.
- Optimization: Solving complex logistical problems faster than classical methods.

**Challenges**
- Quantum Decoherence: The fragility of quantum states.
- Error Correction: The difficulty of maintaining the accuracy of quantum calculations.
- Scalability: Building large-scale quantum computers.

**Future of Quantum Computing**


Quantum computing is expected to solve problems that are currently intractable for
classical computers, especially in cryptography, medicine, and materials science.
