The collective excitations of spin states of an ensemble of polar molecules are studied as a candidate for highfidelity quantum memory.To avoid the collisional properties of the molecules,they are arranged in dipolar crystals under one or two dimensional trapping conditions.We calculate the lifetime of the quantum memory by identifying the dominant decoherence mechanisms and estimating their effects on gate operations when a molecular ensemble qubit is transferred to a microwave cavity.
