Le matériel quantique – atomes, photons ou microstructures artificielles qui stockent les données dans des bits quantiques, ou «qubits» – doit satisfaire [à] des exigences contradictoires. D'une part, il faut que les qubits soient suffisamment isolés de leur environnement, sinon des interactions externes perturberont leurs calculs. [...] Mais, d'autre part, il faut aussi que les qubits interagissent fortement les uns avec les autres et puissent être mesurés avec précision pour que l'on accède au résultat des calculs. 2, record 1, French, - mat%C3%A9riel%20quantique
