To provide an inter-energy conversion power generation method that solves the problems that conventional power sources that generate power using
photoelectric effect, such as solar cells, rely on an external
light source of a device, making power generation unavailable at night etc. when the necessary
light energy required for power generation.SOLUTION: A phosphorescent material, which has a material property of being able to convert electrical energy and
light energy back and forth, is mixed in appropriate amounts and ratios with a highly conductive
metal such as
copper or aluminum, or a carbon-based good conductor such as a
carbon allotrope and processed into
powder or solution. This mixture is sealed inside a power generation device and temporarily energized from an external power source or irradiated by an external
light source. Furthermore, the mixture enters a state in which light is emitted and
electricity is generated simultaneously within the device (electrical energy and
light energy are being converted back and forth). This problem is solved by using a power generation method that utilizes the
chemical reaction (energy interconversion reaction) of this "mixture of phosphorescent materials and good conductors". The same effect can be achieved by using
fluorescent materials, which are raw materials for fluorescent paints, or reflective materials, which are the raw materials for reflective materials, instead of phosphorescent materials.SELECTED DRAWING: None
