The idea of harvesting energy from graphene is controversial because it refutes physicist Richard Feynmans well-known assertion that the thermal motion of atoms, known as Brownian motion, cannot do work. Thibados team found that at room temperature the thermal motion of graphene does in fact induce an alternating current (AC) in a circuit, an achievement thought to be impossible.
I figure it'll be a "lab accident". If he survives though, and the idea pans out, this could make its first commercial appearance in an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch. Thanks Red Badger.
