Communications, NUST MISiS© Photo : NUST MISiSSubscribeResearchers from St. Petersburg University found that

semiconductors can cool themselves by converting heat into light.Overheating is a perpetual headache in modern

electronics. The more powerful the chip, laser, or optical sensor, the harder it is to dissipate excess heatScientists

used a quantum well to trap electrons and holes, creating two exciton states at different energy levelsA laser excites

one state; heat provides energy to jump higher, then a photon is emitted, cooling the materialThe approach could help

create compact lasers, photonic chips, and optical sensors where conventional cooling is too bulky or
