Description

A kind of complex conversion isotope battery
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of microminiature isotope battery, more particularly to a kind of complex conversion isotope battery, belong to micro- Energy field.
Background technology
Isotope battery is supplied into one kind of electric energy by using radioisotopic decay energy Jing transducings cell translation Can device.Because isotope battery is due to compact conformation, the excellent feature such as small size, long-life, reliability are high and non-maintaining, Be expected for implantable MEMS, wireless sensor node network back-up source and artificial cardiac pacemaker and it is portable and Deep-sea deep space etc. need to change the long-term power supply unit of inconvenience.At present, more than 10 plant the isotope changed the mechanism, wherein the hot temperature difference (RTG)Battery has been applied at the aspect such as space flight and cardiac pacemaker, but RTG miniaturizations are more difficult, after miniaturization, its Conversion efficiency is extremely low;And the isotope battery for causing that light-photovoltaic indirect conversion and radiation volt are directly changed the mechanism is radiated, due to adopting With quasiconductor energy transducer, there is unique advantage in terms of miniaturization.
Bower, K. E. et al. exists《Polymers phosphors and voltaics for radioisotope microbatteries》(crc press bocaroton London New York Washington, D.C. www.crcpress.com.2002)In propose and be converted on the ray that the tritium gas of loading decays using metal sulfide coating Luminous energy, then recycles photovoltaic conversion finally to realize that for decay electric energy can be converted into.The indirect of light-photovoltaic conversion is caused using radiation Conversion isotope battery, in radiation light part is caused, and can reduce the self-absorption of low energy ray, improves the utilization rate of ray, but by In two times transfer is adopted, its total conversion efficiency is relatively low.
In terms of radiation volt isotope battery, since L.C. Olsen etc. have developed based on radiation in the seventies in last century After the Betacel prototypes spoke volt isotope battery of volta effect, many R&D institutions and the various improved technologies of patent utilization, with Improve the conversion efficiency and output of spoke volt isotope battery.Including BetaBatt companies and United States Patent (USP) US7939986B2 etc. is proposed using three-dimensional porous device as energy transducer corrective measure;Qiao great Yong et al. is in patent《Have Minisize nuclear battery of protection ring structure and preparation method thereof》(Patent No. CN101599308A)It is middle to propose using protection ring structure, To suppress tracking current, the corrective measure of dark current is reduced;And Liu Yunpeng et al. is in patent《Epitaxial silicon-based PIN node micro Isotope battery and preparation method thereof》(Patent No. CN102522136A)The measures such as the reduction internal resistance of middle proposition.
But, either radiation causes the isotope battery that light-photovoltaic indirect conversion or spoke volt are directly changed, and at present its is defeated Go out power density less, also have relatively large distance from practical application.There are some researches show, battery conversion efficiency is with input power density Increase and approximate exponentially rising, while output also rises at double.Therefore, improve isotope battery output power density to remove To improve outside conversion efficiency, another approach is to include increasing radioactive source loading capacity and using high for above-mentioned energy transducer corrective measure Energy ray increases input power density as loading source etc..Can be because increasing mental retardation radiation by the method for increasing radioactive source loading capacity The self-absorption in source and reduce the effective rate of utilization of ray, and increase have a saturation value;High energy β rays are used as loading source using in Spoke volt battery energy transducer can not be then directly acted on, its reason is when ray energy is more than a threshold value(Such as to monocrystal silicon, The threshold value is 200keV), ray can produce radiation damage to the quasiconductor of isotope battery energy transducer, so as to cause it to change Performance drastically declines in a short time even failure.
