Measurement-based quantum computing with a spin ensemble coupled to a stripline cavity

Recently a new form of quantum memory has been proposed. The storage medium is an ensemble of electron spins, coupled to a stripline cavity and an ancillary readout system. Theoretical studies suggest that the system should be capable of storing numerous qubits within the ensemble, and an experimental proof-of-concept has already been performed. Here we show that this minimal architecture is not limited to storage but is in fact capable of full quantum processing by employing measurement-based entanglement. The technique appears to be remarkably robust against the anticipated dominant error types. The key enabling component, namely a readout technology that non-destructively determines "are there n photons in the cavity?", has already been realised experimentally.
