Abstract
We show that in the realm of general relativity a non minimal coupling between the electromagnetic and the gravitational fields may produce an era of accelerated expansion.

In this paper we present a new way to describe the origin of the cosmological era of accelerated expansion. We show that such acceleration may be associated to a late effect of the non minimal coupling between the electromagnetic field with gravity in the realm of general relativity
