Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to an application technology that utilizes the material properties (photoelectric effect) of specific semiconductors. [Background technology]
[0002] Solar cell (photovoltaic power generation) technology Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0003] Conventional photovoltaic power generation devices such as solar cells generate electricity by using light energy from a light source outside the device, so they have the problem of not being able to generate electricity when the light energy required for power generation is not available, such as at night or during rainy weather. [Means for solving the problem]
[0004] To address this issue, silicon, compound semiconductors, and amorphous semiconductors, which have the material property of converting electrical energy into light energy and vice versa, as well as highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes, are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed together in appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure uniformity among the constituent materials. This mixture is sealed in a power generation device, and electrical energy is temporarily supplied from an external power source (energized) or light energy is temporarily supplied from an external light source (irradiated). The mixture then enters a state in which light is emitted and electricity is generated simultaneously within the device (a state in which electrical energy and light energy are mutually converted). This problem is solved by using a method of generating electricity that utilizes the chemical reaction (energy interconversion) of this "mixture of semiconductors with photoelectric effects, such as silicon, compound semiconductors, and amorphous semiconductors, and good conductors."
