Abstract
The distribution of entanglement between different parties enables quantum communication protocols, such as quantum key distribution or teleportation. Furthermore, control of entanglement between material systems is an essential capability for scalable architectures. This talk will focus on the experimental generation of such entanglement in different setups, in the regime of single photons or in the regime of continuous variables.
