The properties of an entangled two-photon state antisymmetric in frequencies are studied. At a beam splitter, two entangled photons are perfectly anticorrelated. In addition, they cannot be detected at the same time instant despite the fact that their detection times are confined to a narrow time window, i.e., they are temporally antibunched. Using nonlinear photonic-band-gap structures made of GaN∕AlN, two schemes for generating such states are described.
