In the 2011 book “Physics of the Future”, author Michio Kaku predicted that Moore’s Law will end and this would turn Silicon Valley into rust if an alternative and suitable replacement for silicon was not found. For the last 4 decades, Moore’s Law came about to represent unstoppable technological progress. At its heart was the observation that the number of transistors fabricated onto a chip would double every two years and that the cost would also fall off at a similar rate. It is very important to note that this law is an observation and not an actual physical or natural law. However, as of 2010 the update to the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors has shown growth slowing by 2013 after which densities are going to double only every three years. We are hitting the limits of the number of electrons that can be fit in a given area.
One option to overcome this limitation is to create quantum computers that will take advantage of the quantum character of molecules to perform the processing tasks of a conventional computer. Quantum computers could very possibly one day be able to replace silicon chips, just as the transistor replaced vacuum tube.

The future of computing that was earlier envisaged is now. Even now, technology, and by extension, the internet and computer have taken over the world. This generation has taken for granted the presence of advanced technology and devices, unlike in the past, when such didn’t exist.
According to a corporate advisor, Peter Biantes, technology has helped humanity by introducing computers, programming languages, and so on.
A Chinese team of researchers has recently unveiled the world’s most powerful quantum computer – capable of manipulating 66 qubits of data. At the same time, a team at Cambridge University in the UK has created a quantum computing desktop operating system – which could be as significant a step at bringing quantum capabilities into the mainstream as Microsoft’s development of MS-DOS and Windows was for classical desktop computing.

Abstract
Quantum computers are a new era of invention, and its innovation is still to come. The revolution of the quantum computers produced a lot of challenges for ethical decision-making and predictions at different levels of life; therefore, it raised new concerns such as invasion of privacy and national security. In fact, it can be used easily to access and steal private information and data, while on the other hand, quantum computers can help to eliminate these unethical intrusions and secure the information.
Quantum computers will be the most powerful computer in the world that would open the door to encrypt the information in much less time. On the contrary, the supercomputers sometimes take so many hours to encrypt, whereas quantum computers can be used for the same purpose in a shorter time period making it harder to decrypt the data and information.
Many years from now, quantum computers will become mainstays throughout the world of computing. It will serve the individual and the community, but there is a significant concern that quantum computers could be used to invade people’s privacy (Hirvensalo, 2012).
Literature Review
The study area that is aimed on the implementation of quantum theory principles to develop computer technology is called Quantum computing. The field of quantum mechanics arose from German physicist Max Planck’s attempts to describe the spectrum emitted by hot bodies and specifically he wondered the reason behind the shift in color from red to yellow to blue as the temperature of a flame increased.

There has been tremendous development in quantum computing since then and more research is been done to realize its full potential. Generally, quantum computing depends on quantum laws of physics. Rather than store information as 0s or 1s as conventional computers do, a quantum computer uses qubits which can be a 1 or a 0 or both at the same time. The quantum superposition along with the quantum effects of entanglement and quantum tunneling enable computers to consider and manipulate all combinations of bits simultaneously. This effect will make quantum computation powerful and fast (Williams, 2014).

Researchers in quantum computing have enjoyed a greater level of success. The first small 2-qubit quantum computer was developed in 1997 and in 2001 a 5-qubit quantum computer was used to successfully factor the number 15 [85].Since then, experimental progress on a number of different technologies has been steady but slow, although the practical problems facing physical realizations of quantum computers can be addressed.

What is a quantum computer?A quantum computer harnesses some of the almost-mystical phenomena of quantum mechanics to deliver huge leaps forward in processing power. Quantum machines promise to outstrip even the most capable of today’s—and tomorrow’s—supercomputers.
They won’t wipe out conventional computers, though. Using a classical machine will still be the easiest and most economical solution for tackling most problems. But quantum computers promise to power exciting advances in various fields, from materials science to pharmacuticals research. Companies are already experimenting with them to develop things like lighter and more powerful batteries for electric cars, and to help create novel drugs.
The secret to a quantum computer’s power lies in its ability to generate and manipulate quantum bits, or qubits.
What is entanglement? Researchers can generate pairs of qubits that are “entangled,” which means the two members of a pair exist in a single quantum state. Changing the state of one of the qubits will instantaneously change the state of the other one in a predictable way. This happens even if they are separated by very long distances.
Nobody really knows quite how or why entanglement works. It even baffled Einstein, who famously described it as “spooky action at a distance.” But it’s key to the power of quantum computers. In a conventional computer, doubling the nmber of bits doubles its processing power. But thanks to entanglement, adding extra qubits to a quantum machine produces an exponential increase in its number-crunching ability.
Quantum computers harness entangled qubits in a kind of quantum daisy chain to work their magic. The machines’ ability to speed up calculations using specially designed quantum algorithms is why there’s so much buzz about their potential.
That’s the good news. The bad news is that quantum machines are way more error-prone than classical computers because of decoherence.
What is a qubit? Today's computers use bits—a stream of electrical or optical pulses representing
1s or
0s. Everything from your tweets and e-mails to your iTunes songs and YouTube videos are essentially long strings of these binary digits.
Quantum computers, on the other hand, use qubits, which are typically subatomic particles such as electrons or photons. Generating and managing qubits is a scientific and engineering challenge. Some companies, such as IBM, Google, and Rigetti Computing, use superconducting circuits cooled to temperatures colder than deep space. Others, like IonQ, trap individual atoms in electromagnetic fields on a silicon chip in ultra-high-vacuum chambers. In both cases, the goal is to isolate the qubits in a controlled quantum state.
Qubits have some quirky quantum properties that mean a connected group of them can provide way more processing power than the same number of binary bits. One of those properties is known as superposition and another is c.
