| contents | A promising pathway towards scalable quantum photonic processors involves the simultaneous integration of deterministic single-photon sources, low-loss photonic circuitry, and fast reconfigurability. Thin-film lithium tantalate on insulator (LTOI) offers an exceptional electro-optic response and low optical loss at 900 nm wavelength band, yet its lack of efficient quantum emitters has hindered progress toward fully integrated quantum technologies. Here, we demonstrate heterogeneous integration of indium arsenide quantum dots (QDs) with low-loss reconfigurable LTOI waveguides using micro-transfer printing. By directly butt-coupling tapered gallium arsenide waveguides with inversely tapered LTOI waveguides, we achieve robust and alignment-tolerant inter-waveguide coupling. The hybrid chip operates at cryogenic temperatures, enabling deterministic routing of successively emitted single photons from the QDs with a halfwave voltage-length product, confirming the cryogenic stability of LTOI's electro-optic coefficient. These results establish the first demonstration of high-speed on-chip routing of single photons with hybrid QD-LTOI circuits, providing a scalable pathway toward integrated quantum photonic processors. |
