This research presents a critical architectural advancement for scaling quantum computing by utilizing decentralized optical switching to link separate modules. By overcoming physical constraints of planar geometry, this approach enables dynamic "any-to-any" connectivity that reduces execution times and error accumulation in distributed systems. Such modular interconnects are essential for transitioning from single-unit devices to large-scale, functional quantum networks.
