Detailed explanation-1: -Deutsch, 69, became known as the “father of quantum computing” after proposing an exotic – and so far unbuildable – machine to test the existence of parallel universes. His paper in 1985 paved the way for the rudimentary quantum computers scientists are working on today.
Detailed explanation-2: -In 1996, Lov Grover from Bell Labs invented a quantum search algorithm which yields a provable (though only quadratic) “speed-up” compared to its classical counterparts. A year later the first model for quantum computation based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques was proposed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some of the main businesses leading the way in quantum computing include Google, IBM, Rigetti Computing, IonQ, D-Wave Systems, Alibaba, Xanadu, Honeywell, Zapata Computing, and Cambridge Quantum Computing.
