Bell's inequality allows to test the validity of local hidden variables theories. To perform a conclusive Bell test, one has to fulfill two major requirements: The state measurements of the entangled particles need to be highly efficient and space like separated.
We present progress towards an experiment which can fulfill both requirements. We use entanglement between single trapped atoms and single photons to create heralded entanglement between separated atoms [1]. The measurement including choosing a random setting and efficiently reading out the atomic state, will take less then one microsecond. This is achieved by state dependent ionization and subsequent detection of the ionization fragments [2]. We plan extending the distance between the atoms from now 20m to 400m to enable the space like separation of the measurements on the atoms. Together, this will enable to finally close the locality and the efficiency loophole in one experiment.
