Abstract
Solution processible colloidal quantum dots hold great promise for realizing single-photon sources embedded into scalable quantum technology platforms. However, the high-yield integration of large numbers of individually addressable colloidal quantum dots in a photonic circuit has remained an outstanding challenge. Here, we report on integrating individual colloidal core-shell quantum dots (CQDs) into a nanophotonic network that allows for excitation and efficient collection of single-photons via separate waveguide channels. An iterative electron beam lithography process provides a viable method to position single emitters at predefined positions in a photonic integrated circuit with yield that approaches unity. Our work moves beyond the bulk optic paradigm of confocal microscopy and paves the way for supplying chip-scale quantum networks with single photons from large numbers of simultaneously controllable quantum emitters.
