Nature Photonics recently covered the work of Lončar group's where the group together with colleagues in Germany reported efficient diamond nanowire single-photon source based on an array of nanopillars in diamond (~200 nm in diameter and 2 μm high).
This is a very good piece of work which will allow new technologies such as secure communication through quantum cryptography. The work has been featured on the cover of Nature nanotechnology.
