“Theodore Moustakas, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Boston University, published a patent for ‘highly insulating monocrystalline gallium nitride thin films’ in November 1997 The patent is set to expire in 2015. Boston University has not made a comment as to why the university chose this time to file on Mr. Moustakas’ behalf. BU has asked Apple to halt the sales of the iPhone 5, iPad, and MacBook Air, and has asked for damages. Apple has sold more than 100 million iPads and 55 million copies of the iPhone 5.”
