Quantum networks are essential for advancing quantum computing and secure communication, enabling quantum information to be shared across multiple nodes. These networks can support applications like distributed quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and enhanced sensing. Such technologies will pave the way for the future quantum internet. However, scaling such networks presents significant challenges, including maintaining qubit coherence over long distances and efficiently distributing and routing entanglement among numerous nodes. In this scenario, optical communications offer a promising solution to distribute qubits, due to its large bandwidth and low loss characteristics even over long distances. The work in this thesis leverages Netsquid, a quantum hardware and network simulator, to simulate a network in which multiple quantum nodes are interconnected.
