In order to realize long-distance quantum communication applications, the efficient single or entangled photon generation at telecommunication wavelengths is essential. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are a very promising photon source for realizing quantum teleportation due to their non-Poissonian emission characteristics and compatibility with semiconductor technology. However, the extraction efficiency is restricted because of the significant total internal reflection caused by the high refractive index host material. Here we show high extraction efficiency from InAs/GaAs QDs emitting in the telecom O-band by using an optical antenna structure. Combining a nano-membrane containing QDs with gallium phosphide hemispherical lenses results in an increased photon extraction by two orders of magnitude. This versatile approach may therefore enable new developments for long-haul quantum communication technologies.
