It's very dark, light up a Pickle
The researchers have introduced a very strange light source. What you require is a pickle, two nails and connecting wire. And the whole setup is very easy to practice at home.
Just stab the two nails on the opposite ends of pickle in away so that nails are perpendicular to each other, keeping in mind the possibility that if the set up rolls, only one nail touches the surface.
Simply wrap the wires on the ends of nails and tape them. Place the pickle on the insulator like glass beaker to avoid the passage of electricity to the nearby conductors. Now put the wire into the sockets running AC. You'll see no immediate reaction, but after 15-20 secs pickle will light up like green fluorescent bulb with a buzzing sound throwing pungent smell.
