  Photon pairs, highly entangled in polarization have been generated under
femtosecond laser pulse excitation by a type I crystal source, operating in a
single arm interferometric scheme. The relevant effects of temporal walk-off
existing in these conditions between the ordinary and extraordinary photons
were experimentally investigated. By introducing a suitable temporal
compensation between the two orthogonal polarization components highly
entangled pulsed states were obtained.
