Well, it just became even more interesting. We have a piece from circuitscribe that shines red or blue depending on the current direction. We made it glow red AND blue.
I would not believe this myself if I did not see. Look at the scheme of the circuit. I could not take a picture, the effect was not stable.
My guess is, static charge shifts an electron-hole balance and leads to weak recombination.
Pity the effect is so weak and unstable. We can observe it at night, and when we are not ready with instruments.
Played with LED strip and noticed some diodes glow when we touch them with fingers. The strip is not connected to anything. On one hand, I understand that the electric energy comes from somewhere around. On the other hand, I don't understand what exactly is happening there. Can we leverage this effect somehow? :)
