Long-Distance Atom-Photon Entanglement and Remote Preparation of an Atomic Quantum Memory

Entanglement between light and matter plays an outstanding role in long-distance quantum communication allowing e.g. quantum teleportation from light to matter and a first demonstration of a quantum repeater. However from a more fundamental point of view it opens up also the possibility to perform a first loophole-free test of Bell's inequality with a pair of entangled atoms at remote locations. In this talk I will show first important steps in this direction.
