Abstract
Quantum computing is information processing based on the principles of quantum mechanics. Qubits are at the core of quantum computing. A qubit is a quantum state where information can be encoded, processed, and readout. Any particle, sub-particle, or quasi-particle having a quantum phenomenon is a possible qubit candidate. Ascendancy in algorithms and coding demands knowledge of the specificities of the inherent hardware. This paper envisages qubits from an information processing perspective and analyses core qubit technologies.
