qubit

noun

A quantum bit; the unit of quantum information; a bit in a quantum computer capable of being in a state of superposition.

Exact(44)

Each extra qubit in a quantum machine doubles the number of simultaneous operations it can perform.

Because each qubit can simultaneously process a zero and a one, a quantum computer could zip through lots of calculations in parallel.

A lone rubidium atom can exist in one of two different low-energy quantum states, meaning that it can act as a qubit store.

Each qubit is represented by a particular atom in every molecule, and all of the trillions of atoms corresponding to a particular qubit are manipulated at the same time.

Before a qubit is measured, for example, it could have a 90% chance of being 1, and a 10% chance of being 0. After the measurement, it takes on one of these two values.

Though a qubit may, for a while, be in a state of superposition between 0 and 1, it must eventually choose between the two.
