Abstract We demonstrate a new generation mechanism for polarisation- sukrensi.com and colour-entangled photon pairs.In our approach we tailor the phase-matching of a periodically poled KTP crystal such that two downconversion processes take place simultaneously.Relying on this effect, our source emits entangled bipartite photon states, emerging intrinsically from a single, unidirectionally pumped crystal with uniform poling period.Its property of being maximally compact and luminous at the same time makes our source unique compared to existing photon-entanglement sources and is therefore of high practical significance simply boho classroom in quantum information experiments.
