Abstract
The prospect of quantum networks is pushing technical advances in entangled photon generation, and different solutions have now the potential to coexist. After reviewing the development that led to implement entanglement-based quantum key distribution using a quantum dot—a technology motivated by the goal of on-demand operation—in an urban free-space optical link, we present its extension to a three-node quantum network including a source based on spontaneous parametric down conversion. Using separable measurements, we combine intrinsically independent sources to demonstrate a significant violation of a Bell-like inequality associated to nonlocal correlations in a tripartite hybrid network.
