Instead of using light to etch a transistor circuit on a wafer of silicon, they propose to fabricate tiny wires.

ECONOMIST: A molecular replacement for the transistor?

That wire can ground a contact on the circuit board behind the light that triggers a function intended to allow the door to be opened with a remote button, bypassing all its security measures.

In this case, Richardson combined a couple of Arduino circuit boards with an infrared LED light -- that little red bubble on the front of your TV remote -- and programmed the whole thing to interact with a TV's closed-captioning system.

They will permit the refinement of waveguides the devices which, by carrying and directing light, act as the equivalent of the wires in an electronic circuit.

ECONOMIST: New-age crystals

In its decision, the First Circuit noted that it was required to consider all evidence in the light most favorable to the plaintiffs.

The case was then appealed to the 10th Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel, which issued its own lengthy opinion that shed light on some important other issues as set forth below.

As it is made entirely out of circuit board, users can solder components directly to it -- such as a light dependent resistor or a microphone to make it respond to sound.
