- Description
- Quantum computing leverages the principles of quantum mechanics for information processing, with qubits serving as the fundamental units of quantum information. Qubits are quantum states where information processing can be engineered. Qubits possess the unique ability to encode, manipulate and extract information, enabling remarkable parallelism in computation. This enhanced computational speed, called quantum supremacy, promises to transcend established complexity boundaries. Significant strides have been made in demonstrating quantum supremacy through various experiments, most notably Googles 2019 experiment utilizing the Sycamore quantum processor to solve a problem that would stymie classical supercomputers for millennia. Other research groups, such as the Chinese team employing Jiuzhang and Zuchongzhi quantum processors, have achieved similar feats, showcasing the profound computational capabilities of quantum computers. It is essential to underscore that quantum supremacy does not signify quantum computers superiority across all tasks; current quantum computers remain constrained in their applicability, excelling primarily in specific problem domains. Nevertheless, recent advancements in quantum computing are noteworthy and ongoing development promises to expand their problem-solving capacities. This paper offers an introductory overview of quantum computing and an assessment of three prominent quantum supremacy experiments.
