Abstract An all‐optical implementation scheme of a spin‐based quantum computer is presented. Our quantum memory consists of the spin of electrons confined to quantum dots. Utilizing the Pauli blocking effect we are able to have ultra‐fast control and read out of the electronic spin degrees of freedom by conditionally coupling them with charged excitations of the quantum dot. Imperfections effecting gate operations are discussed and we show that final readout can still be performed by a quantum‐jump technique even in the presence of hole mixing, when the Pauli‐blocking selection rule is violated.
