Abstract
Quantum networks play a crucial role for distributed quantum information processing, enabling the establishment of entanglement and quantum communication among distant nodes. Firstly, we use a coherently driven quantum dot to experimentally demonstrate a modified Ekert quantum key distribution protocol with two quantum channel approaches: both a 250-m-long single-mode fiber and in free-space, connecting two buildings within the campus of Sapienza University in Rome. Second, we included an independent SPDC source to construct a hybrid network (quantum dot and SPDC) to violating a suitable non-linear Bell inequality, thus demonstrating the nonlocal behavior of the correlations among the nodes of the network.
