A heat-activated switch for sound? Is this extremely slow, or what?

I think the idea is they hypothesize a new way to build electronic transistors, and the equations it relies on happen to have an exact counterpart in sound, so they built a sound-based one as a kind of scale model.

I thought that was part of it, but with s/electronic/photonic/g
