  • We present a feasible and scalable approach to testing Bell nonlocality and implementing device-independent quantum key distribution (DI-QKD) between distant atomic states in cavity-based architectures, mediated by hybrid atom-light entanglement. We develop a full theoretical model that incorporates realistic sources of noise -- such as transmission loss, limited light-matter coupling efficiency, and imperfect detection. Our analysis shows that strong Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) violations and secure key generation over tens of kilometers are within reach using current or near-term technology. These results position cavity-based platforms with coherent-state encodings as a promising foundation for future scalable, DI quantum communication networks.
