Abstract :
Quantum key distribution protocol and quantum computing systems are based on single photon sources. A quantum dot (QD) and photonic crystal microcavity association can be a solution to obtain an efficient single photon sources. In this paper we present a quantum dot model with optimum geometrical parameters and materials to obtain a single photon emission at 1550 nm.
