  A doped semiconductor double-quantum-dot molecule is proposed as a qubit
realization. The quantum information is encoded in the electron spin, thus
benefiting from the long relevant decoherence times; the enhanced flexibility
of the molecular structure allows to map the spin degrees of freedom onto the
orbital ones and vice versa, and opens the possibility for high-finesse
(conditional and unconditional) quantum gates by means of stimulated Raman
adiabatic passage.
