Abstract
We report the observation of spatial biphoton correlation in spontaneous parametric down conversion. The optical bench includes a type‐I BBO crystal of effective length 2 mm, pumped by a 100 mW violet laser diode centered at 405.38 nm. Photon pairs are created with degenerate wavelength ≈810.76 nm. Once the horizontal counting rates have been measured, a simple geometrical recipe is shown to be useful in calculating bounds for the width of vertical counting rates. The spatial correlation between idler and signal photons is illustrated with a coincidence distribution of the coordinate pair (xs,xi), with xi,s the idler (signal) detector position in horizontal scan.
