Time to mention his work re graphene?
Recent work at University of Arkansas refers to a paper by Léon Brillouin about energy from graphene and a single diode. This article does not mention that article from the 1950s, at least the word graphene does not appear. “In the 1950s, physicist Léon Brillouin published a landmark paper refuting the idea that adding a single diode, a one-way electrical gate, to a circuit is the solution to harvesting energy from Brownian motion. Knowing this, Thibado's group built their circuit with two diodes for converting AC into a direct current (DC). With the diodes in opposition allowing the current to flow both ways, they provide separate paths through the circuit, producing a pulsing DC current that performs work on a load resistor.” This is a quote from Science Daily in 2020 found here. Other sources have picked this up. My ability in this exotic physics is not up to this kind of writing. Perhaps someone can add it it. Brillouin seems a brilliant man. - - Prairieplant (talk) 22:19, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
