The confinement of matter fields is studied in the compact (2+1)-dimensional QED theory of high-T{sub c} superconductors. It is found that the monopole configurations do not affect the propagator of gauge potential a{sub {mu}}. This then leads to the findings that chiral symmetry breaking and confinement take place simultaneously in the antiferromagnetic state and that neither monopole effect nor Anderson-Higgs mechanism can cause confinement in the d-wave superconducting state. The physical implications of these field theoretic results are also discussed.
