We evaluate the potential of confined Tamm plasmon structures for single photon extraction. A single quantum dot is inserted in a structure consisting of a gold microdisk deposited on a distributed Bragg reflector. The quantum dot exciton line experiences acceleration of spontaneous emission while the biexciton line experiences inhibition. This property leads to non-linearities in the emission dynamics and the photon statistics as a function of the excitation rate. We show that the device operates as a single photon source with a measured brightness of 0.20 +/- 0.02 collected photons per pulse. By modeling the extraction efficiency, we show that efficiencies around 60% can be reached in optimized structures. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4726117]
