Field emission generating set

Abstract

Based on a new concept, which is different from the conventional electric-power generating method, a stable electric power generation is enabled that requires less energy, exhibits a high efficiency and cleanness, and has no fear of exhaustion. There are included an electron supplier (20) that holds free electrons; an electron emitting port (30) that is located at the electron supplier (20) in such a manner that it is electrically conductive with the electron supplier (20); an electron pulling-in / releasing electrode (40) that is opposed to the electron emitting port (30) with an electric insulation field (F) intervening therebetween and to which electric fields are applied, thereby causing the electron pulling-in / releasing electrode (40) to pull in and release electrons; an electron acceptor (50) that receives the electrons released by the electron pulling-in / releasing electrode (40); ; and an electron absorption inhibiting means that inhibits the electron pulling-in / releasing electrode (40) from absorbing the electrons emitted from the electron emitting port (30). A positive voltage is applied to the electron pulling-in / releasing electrode (40), thereby causing the electron emitting port (30) to field emit electrons, which are then received by the electron acceptor (50) for collection.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power generation device utilizing field emission (radiation). Background technique [0002] In power generation as a method of obtaining electric energy, power generation utilizing natural energy, such as solar power generation and tidal power generation, is known in addition to hydroelectric power generation and wind power generation that have been performed since ancient times. Thermal power generation using fossil fuels and atomic power generation using atomic energy are also known. [0003] In the above-mentioned power generation using fossil fuels, there is a problem that the fossil fuels used as raw materials are limited, so they will be exhausted sooner or later and cannot meet the needs of society. [0004] In addition, in the above-mentioned power generation using natural energy such as solar energy or wind energy, the supply of solar energy and wind energy as the natural energy used depends on natural condi...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the above-mentioned power generation using fossil fuels, there is a problem that the fossil fuels used as raw materials are limited, so they will be exhausted sooner or later, and the needs of society cannot be met.

[0004] In addition, in the above-mentioned power generation using natural energy such as solar energy or wind energy, the supply of solar energy and wind energy as the natural energy used depends on natural conditions, so there is a disadvantage that power generation cannot be guaranteed when people need electricity.

[0005] In addition, in the case of nuclear power generation, there are problems such as safety and equipment
