Semiconductor quantum dots are promising candidates for the realization of electrically pumped single-photon sources. The numerical simulation of such devices has to deal with cryogenic temperature effects and suitable models for the quantum dot occupation and single-photon generation. We demonstrate some first steps in a hybrid approach for the simulation of electrically pumped single-photon sources by coupling the semiconductor transport equations to a quantum mechanical model for the microscopic physics.
