hmmm, i read all the way through admirals big post. Im kinda confused. So i guess the quantum systems of the photons are entangled and not the photons them selves (if i interpreted that correctly) . That pretty much all i got. I'll re-read it again later, once my brain recouporates. Cheers. Correct me if my interpretation was wrong.

ok, i guess i better research more. I probably sound pretty ignorant .

i thought i read somewhere that sometimes entangled photons are released from excited atoms. But i could be wrong.

i knew it was fibre optics, (like t3). Hmmm, I may need to wait for college to do this. By the way, would any of you know how to excite an atom to release the entangled photons. I guess applying heat might but Im not entirely sure.

thanks guys. Never thought of the fibre. Im almost 15 .

I was wondering if it would be possible to contain a photon for a long amount of time. Possible contain it in a mercury buble in a vaccum (im only 14 so im no physicist)? By the way, Im asking because i have an excellent idea that exploits the entanglement theory, but i need to read the polarity of the photon and be able to contain it for a long amount of time. Thanks.
