The fullerene as the qubit is one of the most fascinating ideas in history. 

The idea is that fullerene can be used as the chamber where the electron or the single atom is trapped. And the oscillation of that atom or subatomic particle is conducted to the fullerene molecule. Or when we are talking about subatomic qubits, the proton or hydrogen ion can operate as the qubit. 

The thing is that the qubit is the atom or molecule, what oscillates in the small chamber, and that oscillation is the thing, that makes this thing operational. So what the qubit is? The thing is that qubit acts like extremely small hard disk, and there is a possibility to store data in the qubit form, and then that data would travel in the lines through the microprocessors. 

And that thing makes producing the quantum computer so difficult. When we are talking about the form of the qubit, the key element is the switch, which can transport data to many wires at the same time, and sometimes the qubit is described as the entirety of the quantum computer, what transports the data in that very powerful system. 

The thing in qubit is that the thing is acting also as the data storage, which can transport data from one place to another. When we are thinking about the form of the qubits there are two main types of those data storages. 

1) Magnetic qubits: 

That kind of thing is acting like traditional hard disks, and the thing how they are working is basing the quantum fields or the electricity around those objects. In the case of a magnetic qubit, the electrons can transport data to another electron by using the electromagnetic fields around them. 

But the ions and atoms can also be acting as the magnetic qubits. The problem with those extremely small magnetic data storages, which are also transferring the bit rows to bit lines is that they are really sensitive for the magnetic fields. And if the magnetic field makes the electron or magnetized atoms to touch the wall of the chamber too early, that means that qubit loses its magnetic data storage. 

1.1) Magnetite crystals as a qubit. 

In some theories, the qubit can be extremely large.  Some people have introduced that the magnetite crystals can act as a qubit. The idea is that the superconducting crystals are storing data in a certain form. The problem is that the crystal needs to transfer the data to certain cables at the same time. 

And if there is a problem with the transportation process because if the order of that data is changed. The data is impossible to collect back together. The switch or the chamber of qubit would break the data to bites. That is turned to travel in the wires in a line.  And then that data is collected back in the form where it can read by using a computer. 

The system would detect the movements of the crystals, and that thing causes that the oscillation can transfer the data to the chamber. But the thing is that this kind of system will need extreme accuracy, that it can read the data from the magnetite crystal and transport it to the certain wire. 

2) Optical qubits

The idea is that photons would transfer the data to other photons, and that thing makes the optical qubit possible. The thing is that photons are hard to handle and that kind of thing requires more sophisticated optical technology. 

Sometimes it is introduced that the optical qubits are created in the chambers, where the photons or light ray will jump between absolute stable mirrors. But the optical qubits are immune against the electromagnetic fields. And that thing makes them an interesting choice when the data is transported between quantum computers. The magnetic qubit can also be transformed into an optical qubit by transforming the electromagnetic impulses into the forms of the photon.
