Photosynthesis, Photovoltaic cell(Solar power cell) are already known as the way to convert light power to another energy, so what is the next?

 

We have discovered what we call “Grol” Phenomenon. We prepared Graphite(Carbon; C) was soaked in ethanol(CH3CH2OH) for 12 hours. Soaked Graphite can make flow in aquaous phase toward light direction. With this flow we can generate power.
