On-chip waveguides and beamsplitters have proven to be suitable to realize basic quantum logic circuits. Moreover, quantum dots (QDs) can be integrated into such on-chip elements to act as quantum light sources. In order to efficiently couple the QD’s emission into a waveguide, the QD’s lateral position inside a thin waveguide must be precisely controlled. When integrating multiple QDs in complex waveguide circuits it is important to preselect and fine-adjust their emission wavelength to achieve for instance two-photon interference which is necessary for quantum gate operation. A spatially and spectrally deterministic integration of QDs into waveguides can be achieved by in-situ electron beam lithography (EBL)[1]. By applying our method, QDs are preselected by means of helium-temperature cathodoluminescence spectroscopy right before waveguides and beamsplitters are patterned in-situ with the naturally high resolution of EBL. Special care is taken to optimize the surface roughness of such low-temperature-patterned structures.
