Scientists Build Circuit That Generates Clean, Limitless Power From Graphene
#1
Quote: A team of University of Arkansas physicists has successfully developed a circuit capable of capturing graphene's thermal motion and converting it into an electrical current.

“An energy-harvesting circuit based on graphene could be incorporated into a chip to provide clean, limitless, low-voltage power for small devices or sensors,” said Paul Thibado, professor of physics and lead researcher in the discovery.

The findings, titled "Fluctuation-induced current from freestanding graphene," and published in the journal Physical Review E, are proof of a theory the physicists developed at the U of A three years ago that freestanding graphene — a single layer of carbon atoms — ripples and buckles in a way that holds promise for energy harvesting.

This is major because it was once thought impossible! 

Quote:In the 1950s, physicist Léon Brillouin published a landmark paper refuting the idea that adding a single diode, a one-way electrical gate, to a circuit is the solution to harvesting energy from Brownian motion. Knowing this, Thibado’s group built their circuit with two diodes for converting AC into a direct current (DC). With the diodes in opposition allowing the current to flow both ways, they provide separate paths through the circuit, producing a pulsing DC current that performs work on a load resistor.

Additionally, they discovered that their design increased the amount of power delivered. “We also found that the on-off, switch-like behavior of the diodes actually amplifies the power delivered, rather than reducing it, as previously thought,” said Thibado. “The rate of change in resistance provided by the diodes adds an extra factor to the power.”

So hats off to the physics department of the University of Arkansas! They have just made a major breakthrough, and proved it works!

And sadly, that'll probably be the last we ever hear of it.

Great innovations are being kept secret and hidden from the masses because it enables better control over us.

In my opinion.

Poof, up in Smoke.
The last time you ever hear this mentioned.

Personal Disclosure: So zero point energy generation is a fact eh? ...

What happens if they add a 2nd layer of graphene sheet above the 1st sheet in a 3d fashion that generates a Casimir Effect ???

Would that generate even more energy out of 'nothing'???

Bravo to them ... thats nobel prize worthy!
