Qubit
The fundamental unit of quantum information, analogous to a classical bit but capable of existing in superposition states.
Unlike classical bits which can only be 0 or 1, qubits can exist in a superposition of both states simultaneously. This property, along with entanglement, enables quantum computers to perform certain calculations exponentially faster than classical computers. Physical implementations include superconducting circuits, trapped ions, and photonic systems.
