Fiber-based bidirectional photon detection from nanoscale emitters and photon antibunching behavior between two outputs of two single-mode fibers (SMFs) are experimentally demonstrated. Flakes containing the epitaxially grown quantum dots (QDs) are mechanically fixed by both sides with the edge faces of the SMF patch cables. The emitting photons from a single QD are directly taken out of both sides through the SMFs. Single-photon emission between two SMF outputs is confirmed by detecting nonclassical antibunching in second-order photon correlation measurements. This simple optomechanical alignment-free single-photon emitter is advantageous because of its robust stability of more than three months and low-cost fabrication.
