Abstract
We observed photon antibunching in the fluorescent Light emitted from a sin gle nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond at room temperature. The possibility of generating triggerable single photons with such a solid-state system is discussed. (C) 2000 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 270.5290, 180.1 790, 030.5260.
