摘要：

We propose the method of rapid adiabatic passage to prepare a single molecule in its fluorescing excited state. Spontaneous emission from this state gives rise to a single photon. Since the adiabatic passage can be performed on command, the molecule can be used as a triggered single photon source. Preliminary experiments and quantum Monte-Carlo simulations demonstrate the feasibility of this scheme. (C) Academie des Sciences/Elsevier, Paris.
