Generation of two-photon States with an arbitrary degree of entanglement via nonlinear crystal superlattices.
We demonstrate a general method of engineering the joint quantum state of photon pairs produced in spontaneous parametric down-conversion. The method makes use of a superlattice structure of nonlinear and linear materials, in conjunction with a broadband pump, to manipulate the group delays of the s...
