Gaurav's Waste Energy Harvesting work highlighted on KAUST Discovery and other technology websites!! Overview Gaurav work on waste energy harvesting through MIM based rectennas has been highlighted in KAUST Discovery with the title "Round The Clock Power From Smart Bowties". This paper shows for the first time collection and conversion of waste heat into useful electricity. This has been reported in the paper which is published in Material Today Energy (see citation below). G. Jayaswal, A. Belkadi, A. Meredov, B. Pelz, G. Moddel, and A. Shamim, "Optical Rectification Through an Al2O3 Based MIM Passive Rectenna at 28.3 THz ", Materials Today Energy (Elseveir), Volume 7, 2018. Here are some links from several technology websites: Round-the-clock power from smart bowties (KAUST Discovery) Innovative diode design uses ultrafast quantum tunneling to harvest infrared energy from the environment We Can Now Harvest Electricity From Earth's Heat Using Quantum Tunneling Researchers Develop Diode That Uses Infrared for Power Generation New quantum tunneling application captures electricity from Earth’s heat Scientists Created a Quantum Tunneling Device To Harvest Infrared Heat Scientists have figured out how to use quantum tunneling to harvest electricity from Earth's heat KAUST scientists harness electricity from earth’s infrared heat
