Graphene and hexagonal boron nitride van der waals heterostructured solar energy processing unit (SPU)

摘要

A Solar Processing Unit (SPU) for the conversion of solar energy to electric power comprising:a heterostructure of sheets of two (2)-dimensional materials;wherein the heterostructure is utilized to produce, in the third (3^rd) dimension, a crystalline structure wherein elemental Boron (B) and elemental Nitrogen (N), contained in sheets of hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN), are located as bookends to one or more Cs, contained in sheet or sheets of Graphene in between;wherein each absorbed photon, or part thereof, produces Multi-Excitation Generation wherein more than one electron is generated; andwherein the SPU produces a spin motion of the Boron atoms, in one rotation, and the Nitrogen atoms, in the opposite rotation, in hBN around its on axis by placing an external fixed magnetic field located perpendicular to the sheet of hBN and a second orthogonal magnetic paired to the strength of the fixed magnetic field and tuned to the resonant magnetic frequency of Nitrogen-15 followed by Boron-11 that combine to achieve the spin required for enhanced photonic absorption.
