On April 16, 2016 Dr. Scarel visited the U. S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington and presented Infrared power generation: physics and applications. The presentation described the work of Dr. Scarel with collaborators and JMU undergraduate students: Yosyp Schwab, Graham Gearhart, Brian Lang, Harkirat Mann, Kyle Britton, Justin Kaczmar, Zach Marinelli, and Aidan Gordon. The group hopes to establish a research collaboration with the researchers at NRL, where many opportunities are available.
The figure below introduces the nano-power generator, fabricated in 2014 by Harkirat and Brian.
