Abstract

We have fabricated silver microcolumnar photon reflectors to enhance the photon extraction efficiency from a quantum dot. The mechanically robust planar structure is favorable to couple to optical fibers for stable and efficient single-photon sources. A high photon extraction efficiency of up to 18% is achieved. Furthermore, strong suppression of multiphoton generation is confirmed. The proposed structure is quite promising toward the implementation of practical quantum key distribution systems with dot-fiber-coupled photon sources.
