Quantum computers are devices that utilize quantum mechanics to perform computations significantly faster and more efficiently than classical computers. While a method of implementing a feasible quantum computer capable of replacing classical computers has not yet been found, superconducting devices are a promising alternative.
Superconducting materials could potentially be used to implement a '''quantum computer''', a device that utilizes quantum mechanical properties to produce significantly more powerful processors than we could possibly create in a classical computer.
