The invention describes a method for control of a device. One or more data blocks that are generated from a computing device are continually copied. The bandaging material is attached to the bandaging element. Next, a passivation layer and an organic insulating film are deposited, and patterned to form contact holes for exposing the drain electrode, the gate pad and the data pad, respectively. The rapid operation of the switch fabric enables it to be used as a beam-splitter, separating incoming and return beams; and also to form pulses from supplied CW light.
