Theory of filtered type-II parametric down-conversion in the continuous-variable domain: Quantifying the impacts of filtering

Parametric down-conversion (PDC) forms one of the basic building blocks for quantum optical experiments. However, the intrinsic multimode spectral-temporal structure of pulsed PDC often poses a severe hindrance for the direct implementation of the heralding of pure single-photon states or, for examp...
