Qubits are the basic units of information in quantum computing. They can exist in multiple states simultaneously, allowing for parallel processing and potentially solving complex problems more efficiently.
Imagine a light switch that can be both on and off at the same time. Qubits work similarly, being able to represent multiple states simultaneously.
量子计算 (liàngzǐ jìsuàn): Quantum computing, a field that uses qubits to perform computations based on principles of quantum mechanics.
量子纠缠 (liàngzǐ jiūěn): Quantum entanglement, a phenomenon where two or more qubits become correlated and share information instantaneously.
量子隧道效应 (liàngzǐ suìdào xiàoguò): Quantum tunneling effect, where particles can pass through barriers they would not normally be able to overcome in classical physics.
