Quantum computing - The potential and complications of the Qubit Introduction A Quantum computer (QC) is a computer that utilises quantum phenomena to perform operations on data and increase the computational power beyond that which is attainable by traditional computers. QCs differ from traditional computers, which use transistors and diodes to store information in binary form (1 or 0), by using quantum properties to represent data and perform operations (Rice University, 2000). While no QCs
