IOW this is a form of diode, which as I have stated many times on this list, should be able to rectify thermal noise currents, converting them into DC, which is the electrical equivalent of absolute zero temperature. In short, a diode can act as a thermal sink close to absolute zero, and hence convert ambient thermal energy into DC electrical power. BTW a somewhat more mundane example is evaporation of water, where only the most energetic molecules have enough energy to break the hydrogen bonds that keep water liquid. Evaporation thus separates the hottest molecules from the rest, and is also a form of Maxwell Demon. Once the work of separation has been done, very little effort is required to remove those hot molecules from the proximity of the surface, so that they can't return to it. This results in the remaining liquid dropping in temperature. The effect is known as "wind chill". Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
