Laser wireless charging could keep drones airborne indefinitely — improved receiver converts at 38.49% efficiency and uses nanocrystalline material for thermals

Researchers demonstrated a laser wireless charging system for drones using an improved receiver that converts laser energy at 38.49% efficiency, with nanocrystalline material handling thermal management. The approach could theoretically keep drones airborne indefinitely without returning to base for battery swaps.
