[[Quantum teleportation]], [[Quantum entanglement|entanglement]] and the manufacturing of [[quantum computer]]s depend on a comprehensive understanding of quantum physics and engineering. [[Google]] and [[IBM]] have invested significantly in quantum computer hardware research, leading to significant progress in manufacturing quantum computers since the 2010s. Currently, it is possible to create a quantum computer with over 100 [[qubit]]s, but the error rate is high due to the lack of suitable materials for quantum computer manufacturing.<ref>Shiba, K., Sakamoto, K., Yamaguchi, K., Malla, D.B. & Sogabe, T. 2019, Convolution filter embedded quantum gate autoencoder, Cornell University Library, arXiv.org, Ithaca.</ref> [[Majorana fermion]]s may be a crucial missing material.<ref>{{Cite journal|title=Classification of topological quantum matter with symmetries|first1=Ching-Kai|last1=Chiu|first2=Jeffrey C.

[[Quantum cryptography]] devices are now available for commercial use. The [[one time pad]], a cipher used by spies during the [[Cold War]], uses a sequence of random keys for encryption. These keys can be securely exchanged using quantum entangled particle pairs, as the principles of the [[no-cloning theorem]] and [[wave function collapse]] ensure the secure exchange of the random keys. The development of devices that can transmit quantum entangled particles is a significant scientific and engineering goal.{{cn|date=February 2023}}

[[Qiskit]], [[Cirq]] and [[Q Sharp]] are popular quantum programming languages. Additional [[programming languages]] for quantum computers are needed, as well as a larger community of competent quantum programmers. To this end, additional learning resources are needed, since there are many fundamental differences in quantum programming which limits the number of skills that can be carried over from traditional programming.{{cn|date=February 2023}}
