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

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.
