| 1. | Liquid - state nmr quantum computer
液态核磁共振量子电脑 |
| 2. | Unfortunately , quantum computers seem to be extremely difficult to build
可惜的是，量子电脑似乎非常难制造。 |
| 3. | A quantum computer operates on quantum bits , or qubits , instead of ordinary bits
量子电脑是以量子位元而非一般位元来运作。 |
| 4. | Quantum computers promise to perform calculations believed to be impossible for ordinary computers
鼓吹量子电脑的人向我们保证，这种电脑可以执行一般电脑无能为力的计算。 |
| 5. | The difference between a computed or measured value and a true or theoretically correct value
和以前所想的比起来，理论上量子电脑的性能在更多的应用上超过现在的数字电脑。 |
| 6. | An ordinary classical bit can be either a 0 or a 1 , and standard microchip architectures enforce that dichotomy rigorously
答案在于量子电脑所处理的资讯是以量子位元代表，而非普通位元。 |
| 7. | The huge number of choices ? at least 10120 vacua ? seemed to demand vast computational power , perhaps even a quantum computer
但面对数量如此庞大（至少有10120个真空）的选项，似乎也得有惊人的计算能力才足以负荷，或许还得靠量子电脑。 |
| 8. | With results coming so thick and fast , it is no wonder that , as monroe says , “ many feel that ion traps are well ahead of other technology in the quest to build a large - scale quantum computer
看到这些能够执行既多且快的成果，难怪门罗会说：很多人觉得，在建造大尺度的量子电脑上，离子阱比其他技术都先进多了。 |
| 9. | Indeed , a recent series of unexpected discoveries appears to support our hunch that semiconductor spintronics provides a feasible path for developing quantum computers and other quantum information machines
最近一些非预期的发现也支持了这种想法，显示出要发展量子电脑及其他量子资讯设备，半导体自旋电子学的确提供了一条可行的途径。 |
| 10. | Constructing a functional machine that has a large number of qubits isolated well enough to have such a low error rate is a daunting task that physicists are far from achieving
可以运作的量子电脑需要含有大量的量子位元，而每个量子位元与环境的隔离必须好到让错误率如前述的那样低，建造这样的量子电脑是极困难的工作，物理学家距离成功还很遥远。 |
