The emission of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) has been shown to exhibit excellent properties in terms of single photon purity, photon indistinguishability and entanglement fidelity, i.e. essential prerequisites for quantum communication. Emission in the telecom O- or C-band will boost the range of communication schemes due to the favourable absorption and dispersion properties of silica fibers employed in the existing global fiber network. The coherence properties of photons emitted by InAs/InGaAs QDs emitting directly in the telecom C-band, are examined under above-band excitation and in resonance fluorescence. Furthermore, under two-photon excitation, the single-photon purity and post-selected degree of indistinguishability are determined. To boost the extraction efficiency, the applicability of an approach combining a nano-membrane containing QDs, with a GaP hemispherical lens is presented for a sample emitting in the telecom O-band.
