1、 https:/crsreports.congress.gov Updated May 6, 2022Defense Primer: Quantum TechnologyQuantum technology translates the principles of quantum physics into technological applications. In general, quantum technology has not yet reached maturity; however, it could hold significant implications for the f
2、uture of military sensing, encryption, and communications, as well as for congressional oversight, authorizations, and appropriations. Key Concepts in Quantum Technology Quantum applications rely on a number of key concepts, including superposition, quantum bits (qubits), and entanglement. Superposi
3、tion refers to the ability of quantum systems to exist in two or more states simultaneously. A qubit is a computing unit that leverages the principle of superposition to encode information. (A classical computer encodes information in bits that can represent binary states of either 0 or 1, whereas a
4、 quantum computer encodes information in qubits, each of which can represent 0, 1, or a combination of 0 and 1 at the same time. Thus, the power of a quantum computer increases exponentially with the addition of each qubit.) Entanglement is defined by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) as a prop
