Abstract

A scheme for the implementation of the Toffoli gate in inorganic crystals doped by rare-earth metal ions is proposed. A numerical analysis of the factors affecting the fidelity of the Toffoli gate implementation is carried out, and estimates for the available experimental parameters are obtained. A demonstration experiment is set up in which behavior similar to the Toffoli gate is shown for ensembles of Pr3+ ions doped into a LaF3 crystal.
