Summary:
- Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have developed a new technology that can generate electricity from infrared light, a previously untapped source of energy.
- The technology uses specialized materials that can convert infrared photons into electrical current, allowing for the generation of power from sources like body heat, industrial processes, and even the sun's infrared radiation.
- This breakthrough could lead to the development of new renewable energy sources and power generation methods, as well as applications in wearable electronics, remote sensors, and other devices that require low-power, continuous electricity.
