Quantum light sources are considered key building blocks for future quantum communication networks. In recent years, atomic monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) emerged as a promising material platform for the development of compact quantum light sources. In this work, we evaluate for the first time the performance of a single-photon source (SPS) based on a strain engineered WSe2 monolayer [1] for applications in quantum key distribution (QKD) [2]. Employed in a QKD-testbed emulating the BB84 protocol, an antibunching of g(2)(0)=0.127±0.001 and a raw key rate of up to (66.95±0.10 )kHz make this source competitive with previous SPS based QKD experiments using quantum dot based SPSs. Furthermore, we exploit routines for the performance optimization previously applied to quantum dot based single-photon sources [2]. Our work represents an important step towards the application of TMDC-based devices in quantum technologies.
