Semiconductor quantum dots embedded in engineered microcavities are considered key building blocks for photonic quantum technologies [1]. The direct fiber-coupling of respective devices would thereby offer many advantages for practical applications [2]. Here, we present a method for the direct and permanent coupling of electrically operated quantum-dot micropillar-cavities to single-mode fibers [3]. The fiber-coupling technique is based on a robust four-step process fully carried out at room temperature, which allows for the deterministic coupling of a selected target device. Using the cavity mode electroluminescence as feedback parameter, precise fiber-to-pillar alignment is maintained during the whole process. Permanent coupling is achieved in the last process step using UV curing of optical adhesive. Our results are an important step towards the realization of plug-and-play benchtop electrically-driven single-photon sources.
