← ScienceWhich property cannot be independently measured if two photons are entangled via Type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion?
A)Polarization direction✓
B)Momentum magnitude
C)Wavelength distribution
D)Arrival time spectrum
💡 Explanation
Due to quantum entanglement, the polarization direction of the two photons is correlated via conservation laws; therefore, measuring one photon's polarization instantly defines the other's. This is entanglement, rather than independent measurement permitted for momentum, wavelength, or arrival time.
