The definition of entanglement in identical-particle system is introduced. The separability criterion in two-identical-particle system is given. The physical meaning of the definition is analyzed. Applications to two-boson and two-fermion systems are made. It is found that some different entanglement and correlation phenomena in identical-boson systems exist, and they may have applications in the field of quantum information.
