According to various implementations of the invention, a rectifier circuit may be configured to capture currents and/or voltages induced by a vibrating molecular charge. Any number of such rectifier circuits may be fabricated in series and/or in parallel to provide an electrical power source. In effect, various implementations of the invention capture or "harvest" thermal energy of the vibrating molecular charges and convert this energy into electrical energy. In some implementations of the invention, the rectifiers may comprise diodes. In some implementations of the invention, the rectifiers may comprise field effect transistors. |
