Quantum Computing

Since their invention, computers have been getting smaller and more powerful. (We’ve all heard about Moore’s Law which is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles about every two years) But soon we may reach its physical limits as the size of transistors reaches close to a few atoms. …

Introduction to Quantum Mechanics

  Quantum mechanics was developed because when we needed to describe phenomena at extremely small scales, our classical methods failed. Thus, Quantum mechanics is a  fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales. Quantum mechanics is probabilistic in nature, in contrast to classical mechanics which is deterministic in nature. Failure of Classical Physics: Consider …
