We present a frequency-multiplexed single-photon source which increases the single-photon delivery probability without increasing multi-photon noise. This is accomplished by spectral detection and controlled frequency translation that both have a resolution greater than the single-photon bandwidth. In addition, we have measured the purity of the heralded photon by Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference showing a non-classical visibility of ~64%.
