The first scheme utilizes the physical mechanism to redistribute the quantum entanglement initially established in a dispersively-coupled optomechanical system with a megahertz mechanical resonance to a distant optomechanical system which embodies the tripleresonant interaction induced by the scattering of gigahertz mechanical phonon. We also provide a fast optical pulse protocol to realize the long-distance entanglement distribution from the optomechanical system supporting the gigahertz mechanical mode to the megahertz mechanical mode included in a distant optomechanical system. Specifically, these two schemes respectively demonstrate the megahertz-to-gigahertz and gigahertz-tomegahertz entanglement distribution in the quantum network of optical photons and phonons. This work may facilitate the application of various mechanical systems in hybrid quantum network-based quantum technologies and fundamental physical research.
