Abstract
Implementations of quantum information processing systems based on optically controlled electron spins in semiconductor quantum dots are particulary appealing due to several features. These features include inherent ultrafast gate operation times, reasonably long decoherence times, small optical control power and a natural ability to link to optical fiber communication networks. We will discuss the current state of the art in the experimental implementations of the main elements of semiconductor spin qubits: qubit initialization, single-qubit gates, two-qubit gates, entanglement distribution, projective measurement, quantum memory and indistinguishable single-photon generation.
