Abstract
Quantum photonic integrated circuits require a scalable approach to integrate bright on-demand sources of entangled photon-pairs in complex on-chip quantum photonic circuits. Currently, the most promising sources are based on III/V semiconductor quantum dots. However, complex photonic circuitry is mainly achieved in silicon photonics due to the tremendous technological challenges in circuit fabrication. We take the best of both worlds by developing a new hybrid on-chip nanofabrication approach, allowing to integrate III/V semiconductor nanowire quantum emitters into silicon-based photonics.
