GaSb Diode Delivers Alternative Auto Power

by Darius Nikbin CompoundSemiconductor.net News, 1 Jun 2006 Researchers at MIT are working on a thermophotovoltaic (TPV) system which could one day power a car's air-conditioning system -- even when the engine is switched off. And it's not only the automotive industry that could benefit from TPVs -- the team lists portable power supplies and space vehicle power as other potential applications. Read more
