We propose a scheme for error-detected generation of an N-photon cluster state with a quantum dot (QD) embedded in a single-sided optical microcavity (QD-cavity system). The basic structure of this scheme is an error-detected controlled-phase (C-phase) gate on the hybrid electron–photon system. In this scheme, the fidelity of N-photon cluster state generation can be reached unity even if low-Q cavity and cavity leakage are considered. By using error detecting, the generation of an N-photon cluster state can be performed by repeating until success, which also leads to a high success probability, compared with other schemes assisted by the QD-cavity system. The error-detected generation of an N-photon cluster state in the highly controllable way may benefit on the quantum network in the future.
