contents Particle entanglement is a fundamental resource upon which are based many quantum technologies. However, the up-to-now best sources of entangled photons rely on parametric down-conversion processes, which are optimal only at certain frequencies, which rarely match the energies of condensed-matter systems that can benefit from entanglement. In this Article, we show a way to circumvent this issue, and we introduce a new source of entangled photons based on resonance fluorescence delivering photon pairs as a superposition of vacuum and the Bell state $|Φ^-\rangle$. Our proposal relies on the emission from the satellite peaks of a two-level system driven by a strong off-resonant laser, whose intensity controls the frequencies of the entangled photons. Furthermore, the degree of entanglement can be optimized for every pair of frequencies, thus demonstrating a clear advantage over existing technologies. Finally, we illustrate the power of our novel source of entangled single-photon pairs by exciting a system of polaritons and showing that they are left in a maximally entangled steady state.
