    Bright source of Purcell‐enhanced, triggered, single photons in the telecom C‐band
    (2023) Nawrath, Cornelius; Joos, Raphael; Kolatschek, Sascha; Bauer, Stephanie; Pruy, Pascal; Hornung, Florian; Fischer, Julius; Huang, Jiasheng; Vijayan, Ponraj; Sittig, Robert; Jetter, Michael; Portalupi, Simone Luca; Michler, Peter
    Several emission features mark semiconductor quantum dots as promising non-classical light sources for prospective quantum implementations. For long-distance transmission and Si-based on-chip processing, the possibility to match the telecom C-band is decisive, while source brightness and high single-photon purity are key features in virtually any quantum implementation. An InAs/InGaAs/GaAs quantum dot emitting in the telecom C-band coupled to a circular Bragg grating is presented here. This cavity structure stands out due to its high broadband collection efficiency and high attainable Purcell factors. Here, simultaneously high brightness with a fiber-coupled single-photon count rate of 13.9 MHz for an excitation repetition rate of 228 MHz (first-lens single-photon collection efficiency ≈17% for NA = 0.6), while maintaining a low multi-photon contribution of g(2)(0) = 0.0052 is demonstrated. Moreover, the compatibility with temperatures of up to 40 K attainable with compact cryo coolers, further underlines the suitability for out-of-the-lab implementations.
