Annotation
We analyze the state of type-I SPDC polarization in nonlinear uniaxial crystals using a coordinate system connected with a pump beam. The entanglement loss due to the Migdall effect is examined. The analytical expressions for polarization components of the signal and idler waves for the frequency-degenerate regime are obtained. The numerical results for BBO crystal are also adduced.
