5 FAQs about [Mesodyne lightcell DR Congo]

How does mesodyne's lightcell convert fuel into electricity?

Mesodyne’s LightCell converts fuel into electricity via light. Unable to load video. Try again later. Mesodyne’s patented LightCell™ power generator converts any fuel into electricity via light. The core of the LightCell is a nanophotonic material that is engineered to only emit certain wavelengths of light when heated.

Why is mesodyne more efficient than traditional thermophotovoltaics?

Mesodyne’s generator is significantly more efficient than traditional thermophotovoltaics because the light emitted by the nanophotonic material nearly perfectly matches what the PV cell can convert into electricity. Mesodyne’s founders demonstrated the world record efficiency for this type of energy conversion in 2017 during their PhDs at MIT.

Who is mesodyne?

We founded Mesodyne shortly after we demonstrated the world record efficiency for thermophotovoltaic energy conversion at MIT in 2017. At our advisors’ recommendation, we took entrepreneurship classes, started to conduct customer interviews, and saw real interest in the technology.

Why did mesodyne join Luminate?

From there Mesodyne participated in Chain Reaction Innovations, the WERCBench Labs Accelerator, the Air Force Techstars, the Air Force Mass Challenge, and now Luminate. When we joined Luminate, the goal was to expand our network, specifically in optics and photonics.

Who are mesodyne's co-founders?

Mesodyne’s Co-Founders, Dr. Veronika Stelmakh and Dr. Walker Chan. Image courtesy of Argonne National Laboratory. We founded Mesodyne shortly after we demonstrated the world record efficiency for thermophotovoltaic energy conversion at MIT in 2017.
