Photons can carry quantum information in superpositions — where photons simultaneously have multiple bit values — and the presence of two quantum systems in superposition can lead to entanglement, a key resource in quantum computing.

Schrödinger proposed his «cat» after debates with Albert Einstein over the Copenhagen interpretation, which Schrödinger defended, stating in essence that if a scenario existed where a cat could be so isolated from external interference (decoherence), the state of the cat can only be known as a superposition (combination) of possible rest states (eigenstates), because finding out (measuring the state) can not be done without the observer interfering with the experiment — the measurement system (the observer) is entangled with the experiment.

Unlike classical computers, where the basic unit of information, the bit, is either 0 or 1, qubits can be 0, 1, or any mathematical superposition of both, allowing for more complex operations.
