Several years ago, an optics expert developed a technique for turning shiny metals pitch black. The trick resulted in a material perfectly suited for absorbing sunlight—so much so that generators built with it produced 15 times more power than comparable devices. By enhancing heat absorption and dissipation. . New, high-efficiency STEGs were engineered with three strategies: black metal technology on the hot side, covering the black metal with a piece of plastic to make a mini greenhouse, and laser-etched heat sinks on the cold side.
