ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is described for directly converting solar energy into electrical energy for utilization in driving any desired load. The apparatus comprises an electron emitting means, a collecting means, a first electrode means positioned proximate the emitting means and spaced therefrom and positioned on the opposite side of the emitting means from the collecting means, a second electrode means positioned proximate the collecting means and spaced therefrom and positioned on one side of the collecting means away from the emitting means, control means for selectively charging and discharging the first and second electrode means, and means for electrically connecting the emitting means and collecting means in circuit with the load to be driven.
