The combination of semiconductor quantum-dots (QDs) and natural atoms may allow storing the state of single photons emitted from a QD in atomic vapors, which has the potential to become crucial ingredients for building up a quantum repeater. To achieve such interface, the QD emission has to be precisely tuned to atomic lines. In this talk, I will introduce the first light-emitting-diode based on single GaAs/AlGaAs QDs and demonstrate its operation as an energy-tunable source of photons with wavelength in resonance with the D2 transitions of 87Rb atoms. This device is a compact and completely electrically-driven source of non-classical light in which both the excitation and tunability are provided on-chip. By feeding the emitted photons into a 75-mm-long cell containing warm 87Rb atom vapor, we observe slow-light with a temporal delay of up to 3.4 ns. In view of the possibility of using 87Rb atomic vapors as quantum memories, this work makes an important step towards the realization of hybrid-quantum systems for future quantum networks.
