Some 200 years after Mary Shelley used lightning to breath life into Frankenstein’s monster, scientists have copied her idea to power a phone.
The proof-of-concept experiment was conducted at the University of Southampton in collaboration with Nokia.
The mobile firm warned users “not to try this at home”.
Harnessing nature in this way could provide power sources where electricity is in short supply, said experts.

 Want early design analysis without simulation?Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance. |
