In this paper, we report on the collinear spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) with quantum theory in angle picture. Based on angle-dependent refractive index of biaxial crystal and the dielectric dispersion, we numerically simulate the effective nonlinear coefficients of BiB 3 O 6 (BIBO) crystal in principle planes. The results indicate that the most effective phase matching scheme is the type I in yz plane, while the secondary options are the type I, type II in xz plane. Considering the derivation of angular phase matching conditions, the calculation is convenient, and it is superior in determination of the spatial distribution of entangled photons.

Abstract Quantum phenomena such as entanglement can improve fundamental limits on the sensitivity of a measurement probe. In optical interferometry, a probe consisting of N entangled photons provides up to a $$\sqrt{N}$$ N enhancement in phase sensitivity compared to a classical probe of the same energy. Here, we employ high-gain parametric down-conversion sources and photon-number-resolving detectors to perform interferometry with heralded quantum probes of sizes up to N = 8 (i.e. measuring up to 16-photon coincidences). Our probes are created by injecting heralded photon-number states into an interferometer, and in principle provide quantum-enhanced phase sensitivity even in the presence of significant optical loss. Our work paves the way toward quantum-enhanced interferometry using large entangled photonic states.
