We propose a method to efficiently couple single photon quantum emitters to optical single mode fibers. Due to the undirected emission of single photon sources, such as quantum dots or defect centers in crystals, coupling into optical fibers which is essential for long range quantum communication is typically associated with high losses. To overcome this limitation, femtosecond two-photon lithography can be used to directly fabricate a combination of a microlens and an optical fiber holder onto a quantum emitter. A single mode optical fiber is then integrated into the fiber holder. Due to the high precision of the femtosecond 3D printing process, the position of the fiber core can be adjusted with sub-micrometer accuracy to match the focal point of the microlens. Light from the emitter which is focused by the microlens can therefore efficiently be coupled into the fiber. We present a number of different optical layouts and discuss their pros and cons.
