Posted Fri Jan 11 2008: from DOE Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and UC at Berkeley:
Body Heat To Power Cell Phones? Nanowires Enable Recovery Of Waste Heat Energy http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1200067390
"Energy now lost as heat during the production of electricity could be harnessed through the use of silicon nanowires synthesized via a technique developed by researchers ... The far-ranging potential applications of this technology include DOE’s hydrogen fuel cell-powered “Freedom CAR,” and personal power-jackets that could use heat from the human body to recharge cell-phones and other electronic devices."
