Methods and devices are disclosed for implementing quantum information processing based on electron spins in semiconductor and transition metal compositions. The transition metal electron orbitals split under semiconductor crystal field. The electron ground states are used as qubits. The transitions between the ground states involve electron spin flip. The semiconductor and transition metal compositions may be further included in optical cavities to facilitate quantum information processing. Quantum logic operations may be performed using single color or two color coherent resonant optical excitations via an excited electron state.
