Qubits (Quantum Bits) are the fundamental units of quantum information in quantum computing. Here's what makes them special:
Key Properties
- Superposition:
Qubits can exist in multiple states (0, 1, or both) simultaneously, allowing for parallel processing of vast amounts of data.
- Entanglement:
Qubits can become "entangled," meaning their properties are connected, even when separated by large distances.
- Quantum parallelism:
Qubits can perform many calculations simultaneously, making them potentially much faster than classical bits for certain types of computations.
