We perform canonical quantization of the open string on a unstable D-brane in the background of the tachyon condensation. Evaluating the Polyakov path-integral on a stripe, we obtain the field theoretical propagator in the open string theory. As the condensation occurs the string field theory is continuously deformed. At the infrared fixed point of the condensation, the open string field on the unstable D-brane transmutes to that on the lower dimensional D-brane with the correct D-brane tension.
