Harvesting almost-unlimited energy (in tiny amounts) from ripples in graphene ( interestingengineering.com )
Scientists have figured out how to harness Brownian motion -- literally the thermal energy of individual molecules -- to make electricity, by cleverly connecting diodes up to pieces of graphene, which are atom-thick sheets of Carbon. The team has successfully demonstrated their theory (which was previously thought to be...
