We present a composite pulse controlled phase gate which, together with a bus architecture, improves the feasibility of a recent quantum computing proposal based on rare-earth-ion-doped crystals. The proposed gate operation is tolerant to variations between ions of coupling strengths, pulse lengths, and frequency shifts. In the absence of decoherence effects, it achieves worst case fidelities above 0.999 with relative variations in coupling strength as high as 10% and frequency shifts up to several percent of the resonant Rabi frequency of the laser used to implement the gate. We outline an experiment to demonstrate the creation and detection of maximally entangled states in the system.
