DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

As shown in FIGS. 1 & 2, the power generation cube 100, 200 of the present invention is provided with a plurality of unit cubes 101, 102, . . . , 108; 201, 202, . . . , 227, inside a sealed housing 10, 20. The number of unit cubes forming the power generation cube is preferably a cube of integer, for example, eight unit cubes (2×2×2=8), or twenty seven unit cubes (3×3×3=27), and so on.

The overall size of the whole cube shall be limited to be able carried around. A housing 10, 20 can be used as a container or holder of subject power generation cube.

Referring to FIG. 3, it is seen that the single unit cube consists of six pyramids 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, 3F without apexes, but with bases as six sides 301, 302, 303, 304, 305, 306 of the unit cube.

There is a crystal ball 31 made of laser crystal such as garnet/sapphire/vanadate/fluorides/tungstates etc. in the center of the unit cube, held by and set on the top openings 3010, 3020, 3030, 3040, 3050, 3060 of six pyramids 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, 3F. The crystal ball can be replaced by other materials of gain media.

As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, each pyramid has four sides 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D respectively made of a plurality of panels of solar cells. Four identical solar cells panels from four base-lines of the pyramid to the crystal ball in the center of the unit cube form four adjacent walls/partitions 321, 322, 323, 324 each between two pyramids.

As shown in FIG. 3 & FIG. 4, on the inside surface of the pyramid base (301,302, 303, 304, 305, 306) there is a round mirror (501,502, 503, 504, 505, 506) in the center and several UV (ultraviolet) light emitting elements 50a, 50b, 50c . . . . Such as LEDs (light-emitting diodes) around the mirror, wherein Micro LED is preferred.

As shown in FIG. 1 & FIG. 2 again, a strong industrial glue is used to bond all the parts in place, and is reinforced by an outside edge frame 101a, 101b, 101c . . . on each joint base line of the whole cube.

As shown in FIG. 4 again, an initial power source such as a battery is used for UV light emitting elements 501a, 501b, 501c, . . . to get started. Here a battery can be used to serve just like a lighter. Once UV LED is on, electricity generated by the cube will be partially directed to UV LEDs. So the cube can self-sustain its own electric supply.

UV light from six sides of light emitting elements 501a, 501b, 501c, . . . of each unit cube shine on the central crystal ball 31 to cause interaction of photons and electrons started. Further more, the generated UV light is reflected from each mirror 501(502, 503, 504, 505, 506) back to the central crystal ball 31, that further strengthening the interaction of photons and electrons of the central crystal ball 31 and UV light is bouncing back and forth between the central crystal ball 31 and said six mirrors 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506, and the interaction of photons and electrons of the central crystal ball 31 getting intensified as that happens in a laser. UV light is then magnified inside the unit cube 101, 102, . . . .

The magnified UV light shine on solar cells panels forming pyramids 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, 3F inside the unit cube 101, 102, . . . 108, . . . and electricity is generated to be output via electric wire W (as shown in FIG. 1 & FIG. 2) for people's utilizations.

As shown in FIG. 3, the unit cube 101(102, 103, . . . 108), . . . may have openings 101A, 101B, 101C, 101D, 101E, 101F, 101G, 101H, on cube corners to let UV light go out from one unit cube to other unit cubes.

Corner openings of every adjacent unit cube inside the whole cube are connected to each other. Outside surface or housing 10, 20 of the whole cube ½ is covered or sealed to keep light inside.

Please refer to FIGS. 1-6, UV light from only one unit cube 101, 102, 103, . . . 108 can access all other unit cubes of the whole cube ½ via openings 101A, 101B, 101C, 101D, 101E, 101F, 101G, 101H, on corners of every unit cube, in order to start the interaction of photons and electrons of the central crystal balls 31 inside all other unit cubes 101, 102, . . . of the whole cube ½. That means a great amount of energy is saved in power input, after the use to maintain the UV lightening of the LED of one unit cube. And net power output can increase with increased total number of unit cubes 101, 102, . . . , 108 of the whole cube ½. Electric wire W is directed along edges or joint base lines of each unit cube 101, 102, . . . , 1088 and then covered by a housing 10 of thin rubber membrane etc.
