"However, while MIT's diode puts out more than twice as much energy in photons as it's fed in electrons, it doesn't violate the conservation of energy because it appears to draw in heat energy from its surroundings instead."
This actually sounds legit. Keep in mind, 69 picowatts is next to nothing, so it's anybody's guess whether this will scale.
