The introduction of topological physics into the field of photonics has led to the development of photonic devices endowed with robustness against structural and photonic disorder. While a range of platforms have been successfully implemented demonstrating topological protection of light in the classical domain, the implementation of quantum light sources in photonic devices harnessing topologically non-trivial resonances is largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate a single photon source based on a single semiconductor quantum dot coupled to a topologically non-trivial Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) cavity mode. We provide an in-depth study of Purcell enhancement for this topological quantum light source and demonstrate its emission of non-classical light on demand. Our approach is a promising step towards the application of topological cavities in quantum photonics.
