Electron spins are an attractive candidate for an implementation of quantum information processing (QIP) due to high polarization, fast control and long coherence times. Control in electron spin resonance benefits from extensive experience in liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance QIP, and microwave and RF technology from industry. This thesis details the design and construction of an electron spin resonance spectrometer specifically for research in quantum information processing, including the microwave electronics and variable temperature resonators and probes. We also begin to evaluate our spectrometer using a novel technique known as randomized benchmarking which extracts a figure of merit relevant to QIP.

We review recent progress made in quantum information processing (QIP) which can be applied in the simulation of quantum systems and chemical phenomena. The review is focused on quantum algorithms which are useful for quantum simulation of chemistry and advances in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electron spin resonance (ESR) QIP. Discussions also include a number of recent experiments demonstrating the current capabilities of the NMR QIP for quantum simulation and prospects for spin-based implementations of QIP.
