Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) is a widely used source for photonic entanglement. Years of focused research have led to a solid understanding of the process, but a cohesive analytical description of the paraxial biphoton state has yet to be achieved. We present a simple-to-use closed expression for the biphoton state. The approach describes the full spectral and spatial properties of all interacting beams and applies to a wide range of experimental settings. The analytical treatment of the biphoton state decomposed into discrete Laguerre Gaussian (LG) modes also provides a deeper insight into the role of the Guoy phase in PDC. Especially, the coupling strength of spatial and spectral degrees of freedom (DOF) in PDC is fully controlled by the Gouy phase of pump, signal and idler beam. The control over the Gouy phase can be used to engineer entangled state separable in spatial and spectral DOF.
