Representing the collective effort of over 30 leading scientists in
Russia and the United States, this is the first book written solely
on the subject of nuclear batteries. It presents a rich historical
discussion and original research on the conversion of nuclear
materials into electrical power, which can then be harvested to
make long-lasting, more energy efficient batteries. With this
technology, power-matched supplies would last decades - even
centuries - using safe, direct, long-life, stable, integrated
electric power from the highest energy density source available.
Polymers, Phosphors, and Voltaics for Radioisotope Microbatteries
presents the state-of-the-art in interdisciplinary research in
radiochemistry, tritium storage, semiconductor fabrication and
characterization, nuclear battery fabrication and testing,
integration into MEMS and other electronic devices, and much more.
A key feature of this book is its discussion of construction
materials for miniaturized radioisotope power supplies, since
progress in nuclear battery technology depends on characterization
of functionally radiation-stable components. Though substantial
progress has been made to solve problems of using integrated
radioisotope batteries for micro- and nanoelectronics, each author
has provided an authoritative assessment and has indicated where
development is needed. Research in this area has the potential to
revolutionize the microelectronics industry by enabling MEMS and
nanotechnology. Significant technological progress depends today on
coordinated interdisciplinary research. Polymers, Phosphors, and
Voltaics for Radioisotope Microbatteries contains diverse
discussions of the problems of using radioactive material for
microelectronic power needs and guides readers to future research
in the area of long-life, high energy-density batteries.
