Advances in quantum optical technologies require scientists to control and exploit the properties of so-called biphotons. Biphotons occur when two photons become 'quantum-entangled' - spatially separate entities whose individual quantum states must be described with reference to each other. Biphotons of different wavelenths can be created, with broadband biphotons particularly useful for quantum optics.
