Abstract :
Entanglement is one of the most fundamental and significant features in quantum mechanics. The spatial parameters of the correlated photon pairs were investigated in order to improve the entanglement property within the correlated photon flux. The focus of the work is to utilize the properties of entanglement and novel materials to produce new sensitive detection schemes. Through this focus, we demonstrated one of the most important applications of quantum effects, namely entangled two-photon absorption spectroscopy.
