Cheap Metal-Insulator-Metal (MiM) Diode Created

An anonymous reader writes "Progress on metal-insulator-metal diode manufacturing was just reported online in the professional journal Advanced Materials (abstract). For the first time a high-performance 'metal-insulator-metal' diode was created with cheap materials. This is a fundamental discovery. It could change the way manufacturers produce electronic products at high speed, on a huge scale, and at a very low cost, even less than with conventional methods."

the article?

There may be a building in your neighborhood that houses paywall penetrating tools. You can even go there and use them for free. I believe your community may call this building a "Library."

Or, if you are talking about them patenting the "invention", then yeah.. that sucks.

What about Smoke Emitting Diodes? (or Light Emitting Resistors?)
