Green leaf power generation

It is well known that green leaves have photosynthesis, but it also has a peculiar photoelectric effect function, which I am afraid few people know. Scientists in the United States and Japan have done an interesting experiment: at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, they used the photoelectric effect of green leaves under sunlight to measure the current of 15 microampere with a specific instrument and a highly sensitive miniature ammeter. Although this current is extremely weak, the current emitted by the green leaves will increase with the increase of the light receiving area of the green leaves.

In-depth research by scientists found that the photoelectric effect of green leaves occurred simultaneously. When the sun shines on the green leaves, the green leaves can absorb light energy and take electrons from the water. These trapped electrons are constantly moving freely and gradually gathering. If these electrons are directionally moved by a fixed current field before they move freely, they can form an electron flow, which is the green leaf current. A big camphor tree or buttonwood tree has about 200 thousand leaves, and there are many chloroplasts in the internal structure of each leaf cell. If these leaves are spread out, the total chloroplast area can reach 2300 square meters, which is equivalent to a giant solar energy conversion station covering an area of 36 acres according to energy conversion. After all, this is still a tree. What if it's a jungle? Obviously, the power generation capacity of green leaves is considerable.

Scientists are trying to move such a "power plant" out of the laboratory to provide a new energy source for mankind-green leaf power generation. For example, trees are widely planted around the house, and plants such as green radish, wisteria and Parthenocissus tricuspidata are planted on the wall, forming a thick multi-layer overlapping flora. In this way, not only the house is surrounded by trees, but also the environment is greatly improved. Moreover, every household can build a small power plant in its own system, which will be the most vital new green leaf power plant in the world, with no ash, dust, pollution and noise. The advantage of chloroplast is that it can absorb light energy and convert it into electricity no matter whether it rains in spring, summer, autumn and winter. This wonderful way of power generation will undoubtedly be widely welcomed by urban and rural residents. For people living in remote forests with inconvenient transportation, "green leaf power generation" is more convenient and practical.
