How do we actually build a quantum computer? 🖥️ 🤔 Qubits - the building blocks of quantum computers - harness the strange rules of quantum mechanics to process information in new ways. They could revolutionise data processing and accelerate scientific discovery. Daisy Shearer, Outreach and Education Lead at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC), explains how qubits are made, why they’re so delicate, and the engineering challenges needed to keep them stable - including cooling them close
