The Total Internal Reflection Energy/Heat Source includes an object that allows electromagnetic radiation or phonons to be in total internal reflection within the object. The object, such as a microparticle or optical fiber, is doped with atoms or molecules that convert the electromagnetic radiation or phonons to heat, where the heat is transferred out of the object or converted to electricity. A second embodiment of the Total Internal Reflection Energy/Heat Source includes an object that allows electromagnetic radiation or phonons to be in total internal reflection within the object. The object, such as a microparticle, contains P-type and N-type materials beneath the surface, where the electromagnetic radiation or phonons in total internal reflection strikes the P-N junction of the P-type and N-type materials creating electricity.
