Integrated quantum photonic circuits (IQPCs) are very promising can- didates for scalable and flexible on-chip quantum computation and quantum communication hardware. One critical requirement for their realization is the scalable integration of on-demand indistinguishable single-photon emitters. This is potentially possible through the resonant excitation of an integrated QD in a waveguide by means of an on-chip integrated coherent light microlaser. Towards this goal, we investigate the coupling and lasing properties of coherent light laterally emitted from a whispering gallery mode (WGM) type micro-ring resonator evanescently coupled to a single mode ridge waveguide. Using finite element method (FEM) simulations, we investigate the optimal geometrical parameters maximising the coupling efficiency between the two structures. The III-V semiconductor type nanostructures composed of a GaAs cavity with InGaAs QDs, on top of a SiO2 layer are processed using high-resolution electron beam lithography. Various geometries of the micro-ring coupled to waveguide with grating outcoupler are processed and subsequently investigated via micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy to provide a systematic study.
