I came across this wikipedia article which talks about micropower and describes it as some type of very tiny generators which can be used to power small electronic devices. Can you really fabricate the components of a generator from silicon?? It sounds too good to be true for me, but I'm not knowledgeable enough. Our world is full of surprises!
I'm questioning the credibility of the article because anybody can edit in wikipedia. I tried to search it but couldn't find any entries for it in google. Maybe because the term micropower is not distinctive. Or do they mean microelectronics which can harvest heat to produce electricity? But in the article they mention that the components of a turbine engine are fabricated from silicon?!!!!
Are they the same as nanogenerators?
