Accidental Invention is about to end the use of light bulbs

Can you believe it? an invention like the light bulb can be deemed obsolete?

Well this is how the story goes... A Vanderbilt graduate, Michael Bowers was trying to make small quantum dots and instead of giving out blue light which is basically how they're supposed to function... they gave a white glow..

In Bowers' own words... "I was surprised when a white glow covered the table," since "The quantum dots were supposed to emit blue light, but instead they were giving off a beautiful white glow."

Quantum dots are so tiny... just a few nanometers big.. which is 1/1000th the width of a human hair.. you might just expect to see light emitted from utensils or from anything you can think of...

The new invention can give out a light that can shine twice as bright as a 60 Watt light bulb and can last 50 times longer..

It's an invention by accident so it might need some time for more research.. I hope it comes out soon :)
