    In this paper, by using the second-order parametric down-conversion of the nonlinear crystal, the spin-1 state is simulated by the two-photon polarization entangled modes. Through adjusting the laser pulse power density, the efficiency of second-order parametric down-conversion is enhanced. The intensity of the spin-1 state is 0.5/s. The fidelity of the state is up to F=0.891±0.002, and the contrast is C=17.3. The results provide a new method for Stern-Gerlach measurement on the spin-1 system.
