Quantum Chip Technology : the Future of Computing*Qbits: the

Bedrock of Quantum Processing Technology*A qubit can be in a

1, a 0 or a superposition of both, called a quantum state. This
ability is fundamental to the function of quantum computers.
*For Those Who Don’t Know How the Processor Works
Don’t worry, it’s pretty simple. Your processor creates
combinations of 32 or 64 0’s or 1’s. Then sends the result to the
RAM unit. The RAM writes the combinations temporary on itself
to write the data to the storage unit.
What is Superposition?
Superposition is a situation being twice, and continuing until we
observe the result. When we observe the situation, this causes
the superposition to break and one situations remains, while
the other situation loses its validity. This is like spinning a coin
to find out whether it is heads or tails, until it stops spinning, it
is both heads and tails so it is in a superposition. When the coin
stops spinning and we see the result, the superposition breaks.
*•Every second we live, we break billions of superpositions so
we can say that our pasts would be read-only if we had a time
machine.
The processors we use today mostly combines 64 bits together
for processing data. It choses 0 or 1 64 times .
*
Since we do not know whether it is 1 or 0, a superposition
occurs.
Quantum processors can make more combinations of bits. More
combinations mean faster data processing.
*History
In 1982, Richard Feynman lectured on the potential
advantages of computing with quantum systems. That’s when
the idea of quantum computing started.
In 1985, David Deutsch published the idea of a “universal
quantum computer”
*In 1994, Peter Shor presented an algorithm that can
efficiently find the factors of large numbers, significantly
outperforming the best classical algorithm and theoretically
putting the underpinning of modern encryption at risk. (Shor’s
algorithm)
*In 1996, Lov Grover presented an algorithm for quantum
computers that would be more efficient for searching databases
instead of Shor’s algorithm.
*In 1996, Seth Lloyd proposed a quantum algorithm which
can simulate quantum-mechanical systems.
*In 1999, D-Wave Systems was founded by Geordie Rose.
*In 2001, IBM and Stanford University published the first
implementation of Shor’s algorithm, factoring number 15
into its prime factors on a 7-qubit processor.
*In 2010, D-Wave One: first commercial quantum computer
was released.
*In 2016, IBM made quantum computing available on IBM
Cloud.
*In 2019, Google had claimed the achievement of quantum
supremacy.
*Today, many big companies are developing their quantum chip
prototypes for personal use.

*SeeQc is also an interesting company, their works are different

than others.
*This technology is still very buggy but we’re very close. So we
can see Nasa using quantum supercomputers to managing
their spacecraft. Or maybe we will have quantum computers at
our homes in 2030.
