Side channel leakage of these keys is the area of research you are talking about and that is why that type of research gets hella funded right now. They've gotten really good at hiding these signals. It's foundational to how fabless semiconductor companies operate, or else they would have their IP stolen faster than they could produce it. The chapter I referenced "a brief history of logic locking" goes over the missteps they've discovered over the years.
> got a patent number or other name for it?
I actually don't know where to find it in the literature. I learned it in class at my masters program at NYU and only because I thought to ask the professor. I don't have access to enough journals to trace back that far. It is probably in a material science journal somewhere with some crazy chemical compound name. But the EPIC paper I linked references a bunch of other logic locking schemes, which if you read some of those papers, which I think many are publicly available, you will be able to easily tell what they are saying is not possible without the flashing-glue.

And yeah, that Patterson and Hennessey talk is great. I remind myself python has the potential for 60,000 times speed-up when I think I'm bored with computers.
