• Highly-efficient evanescent coupling between a photonic crystal resonator and a curved fiber taper is demonstrated. The coupling is utilized to pump the photonic crystal laser and funnel its output photons through a single optical fiber, making it an all-fiber photon source. Photon collection efficiency of ∼ 70 % into the fiber and output power of 27 nW are achieved. Highly local pumping results in the record-low threshold of ∼ 35 μ W . This scheme provides an ideal platform for an on-demand single photon source based on two-dimensional photonic crystal.
