Interactive modules on quantum computing and quantum sensing. Everything runs in the browser, nothing to install.

For high school

  1. From a Bit to a Qubit
    Switches, coins, the qubit as an arrow, why looking changes it, turning it, and the hidden direction. Try-at-home experiments and teacher notes included.
  2. Finding an Answer with Waves
    Waves add and cancel, two roads to one detector, scores for every pattern, and the four-box search in one try.
  3. A Qubit as a Sensor
    A field turns the arrow like a clock hand, the stopwatch experiment, beating randomness by counting, and where quantum sensors are already in use.

For undergraduates

  1. How Many Bits Fit in a Qubit?
    Starts from binary, walks a dial from two positions to a continuum, and answers the title question honestly.
  2. Why a Qubit Forgets
    Decoherence. Neighbours, the wobbling clock, one flipping neighbour, the bell curve, motional narrowing, T₁ and T₂, the echo, sweet spots, three platforms.

For engineers

  1. Bits, Qubits, and Phase
    Phasors, polarization, truth tables, gates as rotations, the Mach–Zehnder circuit, entanglement, Grover, Ramsey sensing.
