Writing conductors with a laser

Like a mini-Etch A Sketch, conductors can be written and re-written into an insulating solid, according to Washington State University physicists. It happens when crystals of strontium titanate are exposed to a laser beam, causing ‘persistent photoconductivity’. Heating improves the writeability. “It opens up a new type of electronics where you can define a circuit optically ...
