Quantum teleportation is a process by which quantum information can be transmitted from one location to another, without the physical transfer of the information-carrying particles themselves. It relies on the principles of quantum entanglement and superposition to achieve this transfer, making it a cornerstone of quantum communication and computing technologies.

Quantum information explores the encoding, processing, and transmission of information using the principles of quantum mechanics, offering revolutionary approaches to computation and communication. It leverages phenomena like superposition and entanglement to perform operations beyond the capabilities of classical systems.

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon where particles become interconnected in such a way that the state of one particle instantaneously influences the state of another, regardless of the distance between them. This non-local interaction challenges classical intuitions about separability and locality, and is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics with implications for quantum computing and cryptography.

Superposition is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics where a quantum system can exist in multiple states simultaneously until it is measured. This principle leads to the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics, where the act of measurement collapses the system into one of the possible states.

superposition

Quantum communication leverages the principles of quantum mechanics, such as entanglement and superposition, to enable secure information transfer that is theoretically immune to eavesdropping. This technology promises to revolutionize secure data transmission and has potential applications in quantum networks and quantum cryptography.
