Abstract :
This paper discusses a pedagogical approach to important primitives of superposition and entanglement in Quantum Computing from physics of spin-1/2 particles. System of spin-1/2 particles present a logical and conceptual candidate to understand quantum computing and how it can be realized in nano devices using spin-1/2 particles.
