We investigate cavity-enhanced single-photon emission from optical two-photon Raman transitions in quantum dot systems. For this emission process, it has been shown that basic properties such as frequency, linewidth and emission time of the emitted Raman photon are determined by the external control laser [1,2]. In this context, especially Λ-shaped systems, e.g. in quantum dots or atomic systems, have already been studied in great detail [3]. However, higher Raman photon output towards on-demand generation – which is crucial for quantum communication networks – has not been realized yet. We use numerical algorithms to design an optimized chirped laser pulse in order to achieve on-demand single photon emission. As an optimization criterion, here we use the Raman emission probability that can be defined based on the cluster-expansion approach [4].
