13. In collinear type-I SPDC, the SPDC ring overlaps with the pump beam. In this case, however, photon pair cannot be spatially separated unless they have different wavelengths.

19. In Ref. 13, the authors report the coincidence/single ratio of (Formula presented) without using interference filters. With beamlike type-II SPDC, some sort of spectral filtering is necessary because dual wavelengths exist at (Formula presented) emission angles.

28. Polarization-entangled state generation scheme shown in Fig. 22, in fact, generates post-selected polarization-entangled states, i.e., the amplitudes (both photons leaving the beamsplitter via the same output port) that do not contribute to a coincidence count are ignored.
