Abstract
Abstract A method to integrate nanowire‐based quantum dot single photon sources on‐chip using evanescent coupling is demonstrated. By deterministically placing an appropriately tapered III‐V nanowire, containing a single quantum dot, on top of a silicon‐based ridge waveguide, the quantum dot emission directed toward the taper can be transferred to the ridge waveguide with calculated efficiencies close to 100%. As the evanescent coupling is bidirectional, the source can be optically pumped in both free‐space and through the ridge waveguide. The latter configuration paves the way toward a self‐contained, all‐fiber, plug‐and‐play solution for applications requiring a bright on‐demand single photon source. Using InAsP quantum dots embedded in InP nanowire waveguides, coupling efficiencies to a SiN ridge waveguide of 74% with a single photon purity of 97% are demonstrated. The technique to demonstrate deterministic placement of single quantum emitters onto pre‐fabricated waveguides is used, an important step toward the fabrication of complex quantum photonic circuits.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
