Abstract :
This study demonstrates the generation of narrowband photon-pairs in 1550 nm band using a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide utilizing the nonlinear tensor element for the type-II quasi-phase matching. Using a type-0 photon-pair source and narrowband-pass-filters, the narrowband photon-pairs can be also generated.
