According to foreign media reports, scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology recently developed a reference leaf photosynthesis with the role of self-repair of solar cells. At the same time, the battery can be as light as the molecules they gathered closely together, resulting in twice the normal battery storage of electricity.
It is reported that photosynthesis can convert solar energy to electricity and then the electrical energy into chemical energy for the active, and ultimately be converted into stable chemical energy of the process that will generate electricity for the use of photosynthesis to provide the foundation. Since photosynthesis can be relatively efficiently convert solar energy into electrical energy, but also in the process of transformation consumes only water, not the slightest contamination of the environment, so in the increasing scarcity of other natural energy sources, environmental pollution is serious today, use photosynthesis to solve human demand for energy has become a hot topic of scientific research. The place is the chloroplast photosynthesis. Higher plant chloroplast diameter 4 ~ 10μm, the thickness of between 1 ~ 2μm. In the chloroplast, there are several to dozens of basic grains, each of the structure of grana stacking by cystic made the film in the cystic structure, with photosynthetic pigments. Photosynthesis consists of two main steps: first, the need of light involved, the cystic structure in the chloroplasts of light on the reaction; the second is no light involved, and enzyme in the chloroplast stroma in the dark reaction. Light reaction is divided into two steps: primary reaction, the conversion of light energy into electrical energy, the decomposition of water and release oxygen; electron transport and photosynthetic phosphorylation, active electrical energy into chemical energy. Dark reaction is based on the C5 compounds in plants (1,5 - bisphosphate ribulose) and CO2 as raw material, using light reaction of the active chemical energy, the formation of stored energy of glucose.
