Real-Space Analysis of Two-Photon Polarization States in Type-II SPDC for High-Purity Polarization Entanglement
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is one of the most widely used sources of polarization-entangled photon pairs, and understanding the generated biphoton state is essential for realizing high-brightness and high-purity entangled-photon sources. In particular, Type-II SPDC produces a biphoton wavefunction wi...
