Key findings
- 2015
Loophole-free Bell test
Hensen, Hanson et al.
Violated Bell's inequality with entangled electron spins 1.3 km apart, closing detection and locality loopholes simultaneously.
Why it matters here · The experimental foundation for device-independent quantum cryptography claims.
1.3 km separation - 2021
First multi-node quantum network
Pompili, Hermans, Hanson et al.
Entanglement distributed and swapped across three physically separated nodes with real-time control.
Why it matters here · The reference architecture for the quantum-networking companies now entering the tracker.
