Quantum computing (Q-computing) is a revolutionary technology that applies quantum mechanics (QM) to implement calculations significantly quicker than traditional computers. Q-computing employs Q-bits (qubits) rather than classical bits, which can take on a superposition state, making it possible to represent both 0 and 1 at once. This distinctive property allows qubits to perform multiple calculations simultaneously, making Q computers exponentially more powerful as more qubits are added, compared to the linear scaling of classical computers. However, challenges such as qubit instability and error rates remain significant obstacles to fully realizing this potential. A vital aspect of this technology is the development of Q arithmetic circuits, which act as the foundational blocks for efficiently executing Q algorithms. Q half-adder and full-adder circuits are integral to performing fundamental arithmetic operations within Q computers. In contrast to classical adders, Q adders rely on Q gates such as Controlled NOT (CNOT) and Toffoli gates. These gates exploit Q phenomena like entanglement and superposition, allowing for more efficient computations. The Q half-adder consists of two qubits and adds two single bits, producing a carry and sum output. It utilizes the CNOT gate to compute the sum and the Toffoli gate (controlled-controlled-NOT [CCNOT]) to compute the carry. The Q full-adder builds on this, adding three qubits to produce a sum and a carry output, further increasing computational capacity. Through the entanglement of qubits, these circuits allow for more parallelism and speed compared to classical adders. Q carry-look-ahead adders (QCLAs) and Q ripple-carry adders (QRCAs) are used to perform more complex arithmetic operations based on these half-adder and full-adder structures. Q arithmetic circuits have broad applications, boosting secure key generation in cryptography, speeding up matrix operations for faster model training in machine learning, and enabling more precise, efficient image transformations in Q image processing, benefiting fields like medical imaging and computer vision.
AbstractThe quantum computing has been proven to provide the solutions to most complex computations in the world today. Quantum computers can solve the problems with polynomial resources. Quantum information can be encoded in a number of ways, such as spin components of basic particles like photons, electrons, and polarization of photons. The quantum computer uses quantum bits which are superposition of states called as qubits, which is the classical fundamental unit of information. A quantum computer is a regular classical computer with additional ability to control the quantum bits. It is a regular computer connected to a special peripherals and a set of quantum bits simulated to build controller architecture. Two simulators are used for the quantum programming, one is Microsoft Q# and other is IBM Qiskit. Classical language Q # is used to program the quantum controller and its operations such that initializing a qubit, applying a gate on a qubit and measuring a qubit. IBM Qiskit programs simulates the functionality of quantum circuit and creates it’s drawing using a graphical interface with qubits, gates, and measurements. Qiskit provides simulators that run quantum circuits using visualization tools that help to understand the effect of our quantum circuits on the quantum states. The teleportation technique allows the quantum information to be communicated at a distance. An unbreakable encryption protocol is built for polarizing photons through the quantum channel. The combination of quantum computing and AI has the potential to drive significant advances across many sectors.

One of the greatest technological advancements in the last century lies in digital computer science. The idea of storing information and performing complicated calculations with the help of bits, i.e., 0 and 1. But due to a sudden surge in data, the classical computer system has been becoming weak in data processing. Quantum computers offer promising substantial speedup over classical computers for many applications. Quantum chip fabrication has made remarkable gains in recent years, with the number of qubits and fidelity growing. In general computing, a binary digit is the smallest unit of information or a bit. “In quantum computing, the term Qubit (Quantum Bit) serves the exact function of the term bit.” IBM Research released the IBMQ Experience in 2018, the first quantum computer that anyone can use and make accessible to a huge audience of different countries through cloud access. IBM also introduced the tool QISKIT (Quantum information software kit), which enables teachers, researchers, and developers to write coding and run their coding on quantum machines. It also includes different packages of quantum computing. In this paper, the author has discussed different steps to install qiskit. Mainly this paper focused on the “programming and application side of quantum computing.” Qiskit tools used in the python programming language. The “quantum circuits” are fabricated with the use of quantum gates and favorable algorithms with less execution time
For many practical applications, Quantum computers offer major speed-ups over traditional machines. The production of quantum chips has recently made tremendous strides, with the quantity of Qubits increasing and fidelity increasing. The smallest unit of information is the binary digit i.e. bit in general computing. In Quantum Computing the term Qubit (Quantum Bit) is used for the same purpose. In order to differentiate between a classical bit and a Qubit, Bra-Ket or Dirac notation is used. So, the Qubits are represented as |0〉 and |1〉 and are often read as Ket 0 for zero state and Ket 1 for one state. In this paper mainly programming and application sides of Quantum Computing are focused. For that, Qiskit module and its tools are used in Python programming language. General circuit optimization scheme is given. The Quantum circuits with the concept of Quantum Gates implemented are stronger compared to the optimizing algorithm and with faster execution time. In addition, for prime factorization, access to IBM's Quantum computer is carried out successfully.
Quantum computing is emerging as a revolutionary paradigm in the field of computing, promising an exponential leap in computing power and problemsolving that challenges even the most advanced supercomputers of the classical era.At the heart of this revolution lies the peculiarity of the quantum world, where subatomic particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, a phenomenon known as superposition, and entangle their states in a way that defies classical logic.It is this capacity for superposition and entanglement that gives quantum computing its disruptive power.One of the most intriguing properties of quantum computing is its ability to process information using Qubits, the quantum analogues of classical bits.While a classical bit can only be in a single 0 or 1 state, a Qubit can simultaneously represent a 0, a 1, or any superposition of these states, allowing multiple calculations to be performed in parallel.This massively parallel processing capability is the basis for the potential superiority of quantum computers over their classical counterparts in a wide range of applications.The architecture of quantum computers is inherently different from classical computers.While the latter use transistors to store and manipulate information in bits, quantum computers use Qubits, which can be implemented in a variety of physical systems, such as atoms, ion traps, photons, superconductors or nuclear magnetic resonance.The manipulation of the Qubits is carried out through quantum gates, fundamental operations that transform the quantum state of the Qubits and allow quantum calculations to be carried out.Furthermore, to maintain quantum coherence, the control and isolation of the quantum system from its environment is crucial, posing significant challenges in terms of designing and building scalable and robust quantum systems.
