Cluster states, a special type of highly entangled states, are a universal resource for measurement-based quantum computation. Here, we propose an efficient one-step generation scheme for cluster states in semiconductor quantum dot molecules, where qubits are encoded on singlet and triplet states of two coupled quantum dots. By applying a collective electrical field or simultaneously adjusting interdot bias voltages of all double-dot molecules, we get a switchable Ising-like interaction between any two adjacent quantum molecule qubits. The initialization, the single-qubit measurement, and the experimental parameters are discussed. It is shown that preparation of large cluster states and one-way quantum computation are implementable in semiconductor quantum dots with the present techniques.
