Hi,
Thought I will share some information I gathered with all of you...and you r all free to share your thoughts abt this...
"Nanotechnology is revolutionizing every field and our very outlook of the future by presenting us new ideas and capabilities never imagined till now even in our wildest dreams! One of the primary applications of Nano technology in electronics is "The Quantum computer". The present day computer works on the basis of Boolean logic gates in which transistors are the primary devices. The computers based on microprocessors have changed the way we live and continue to do so. At this moment it is relevant to ask a question "Can’t we build a computer which works based on different principle other than using solid state devices?" and scientists say the answer is yes! we also know that our human brain is a processor and it does not contain any silicon solid state devices to compute! This can intuitively justify the existence of innovative ways to build computers. Scientist’s r exploring new ways of computing like DNA computing where DNA sequences r used, Enzyme and Protein computing where molecular properties are used to compute. Quantum computer works on the principles of quantum mechanics, which govern the behavior of fundamental particles. Instead of ordinary bits these use Qubits. Quantum computers are very tiny because they use atoms to compute! Quantum computers have computational power billions of times than that of ordinary computer. Undoubtedly, Quantum computer is the super computer of the next generation, which will have a profound effect on our lives!"
