A NONCONVENTIONAL PRINCIPLE OF SOLAR PANELS USING SEQUENTIAL INTERRUPTION OF INCIDENT NATURAL LIGHT
Keywords:
photo-electrochemical cell, planar structure, layered deposits, porous electrodes, reactant, contact area, membraneAbstract
It is proposed a type of nonconventional solar panels, which does not have in their structure conventional solar cells, but photo-electrochemical reversible cells functionally organized in planar laminated structures made by coating, as functional electrochemical assemblies by anode-membrane-cathode type, exposed to intermittent natural light, being covered with a transparency and opacity window that succeed each other based on LCD (Liquid Cristal Display) technology using in dark phase, enabled by the opacity of the window, specific reactions at electrodes as electrochemical phenomena that generates electricity, and in brightened phase allowed through transparency of the same window, taking place the reversible photochemical reaction of decomposition of silver halide formed in the previous phase as a return to initial situation. The active phase is the one produced in the dark in which electricity is generated and passive phase is at light when reactivation of the cell is happening, when the substances of the cell return to its original state. The reactions occur at the electrodes of the cells separated by ion permeable membranes.
