Quantum-dot based single photon sources: Commercialization of near optimal solid-state sources for Quantum Applications — •Valerian Giesz and Niccolo Somaschi — Quandela, Palaiseau, France

Quantum light sources are key building blocks for the development of quantum enhanced technologies. Single photon sources based on semiconductor quantum dots have emerged as an excellent platform for high efficiency quantum light emission. However, the question of commercialization of such devices remains a challenge.

In this talk, we report about the first commercialization of efficient single photon sources based on self-assembled quantum dots. We demonstrate the robustness and the repeatability of the fabrication of efficient sources by using innovative fabrication techniques.
