- Energy conservation is a no-brainer and more important than ever, but it's not just about environmental implications.
- If we're to successfully create smaller, better, more efficient technology, then the thermal energy that our gadgets waste needs to be put to much better use.
- This new device, which works at the nanoscale where the theoretical "blackbody limit" falls apart, could be the answer.
