Quantum Field theory and Distance Effects for Polarization Correlations in Waveguides

•  Quantization of Maxwell’s equations in waveguides is considered together with an analysis of the quantum correlation functions of the radiation field. Both the spatial and temporal dependence of the polarization correlation functions for entangled states are evaluated. Predictions for experiments for the study of the spatial dependence of the polarization correlation functions for entangled photons are given.
