Part 8/11:
Superconducting Qubits: Currently the most common approach, superconducting circuits manipulate the flow of electricity across Josephson junctions to form qubits.
Trapped Ions: Using ions manipulated with electromagnetic fields, this method determines quantum states based on specific energy levels of each ion.
Optical Qubits: Leveraging properties of photons, this technology applies optical elements to manipulate light to encode quantum information.
Quantum Dots: Utilizes semiconductors where electron spin and charge states form the basis of qubit operations.
