Now to make "antennas" that could convert electricity from as wide EM wave range as possible and we could have the ultimate power cells :]

But visible light wave length is much longer than size of an atom, so may be we just don't have the right nano technology?

My idea was that if there is a charger that can charge phones with WiFi waves so do PV cells use the same principle for getting electricity? If not then is it possible to make some kind of device that would do that. And from that there was an idea to make a device which would get electricity...

SirAskalot, I am not sure I understand your question. So the idea is to transform that energy (what ever amount it is) to electricity. And the PV cells are not antennas for visible light, right? So is it possible to create one, and would it "generate" electricity?

Basically I am asking two thing: does WiFi signal based charges generates electricity differently than PV cells and if so could we use same principle that WiFi charger uses (since WiFi signal is electromagnetic wave and visible light is electromagnetic waves) to generate electricity from visible...

Hello, I am not sure if I am posting in the right place, but here are my thoughts. I don't exactly understand how solar cell works, but it has to do with photons knocking out electron which makes the current flow. So I thought about the WiFi based charger. It generates electricity from...
