Abstract
Single photon sources are desired for quantum computing and communication applications. Ideally, these sources would provide single photons on demand at the low-loss fiber optical communication wavelength of 1550 nm. Single Erbium ions provide a good candidate for such sources because they emit at the right wavelength and they are very stable, however, the challenges remain of isolating a single emitter, coupling its emission to optical fiber and enhancing its emission rate. Nanoaperture optical tweezers provide a pathway to solving these issues by trapping and identifying single emitters, enhancing their emission rate and providing efficient coupling to an optical fiber. Recently, we have made progress in each of these areas (trapping, enhancing and coupling), which will be reviewed in this talk.
