These devices use the Hadamard gate and other unitary matrix operators to manipulate their inputs. The set of problems practically solvable by these devices is BQP, which is thought to be a subclass of P. In 2001, one of these devices was used to show that "15 equals 3 times 5". To do so, a technique developed by Peter Shor was used, and that technique could one day allow these devices to break RSA. D-Wave has built one type of these devices, which performs annealing using 128 qubits ("Q-bits"). For 10 points, name these devices, first proposed by Richard Feynman, that use distinctly non-classical phenomena to execute algorithms.
