Quantum computing has surfaced as a revolutionary idea with the potential to transform industries ranging from cryptography to drug discovery. However, alongside its promise, quantum computing faces formidable challenges, particularly in the realm of hardware development and scalability. One of the central challenges lies in the creation and scaling of dependable hardware infrastructure. At present, quantum computers can only manipulate a limited number of qubits for brief periods before succumbing to noise-induced disruptions. This constraint severely curtails their ability to execute complex computations and address real-world problems with efficiency.
