Produktbeschreibung

As the first book written solely on the subject of nuclear batteries and their potential to revolutionize the electronics industry, this text will appeal to a broad audience, from engineers to energy policy makers. This collection of contributions from leading U.S. and Russian nuclear researchers contains diverse discussions of the problems of using radioactive material for microelectronic power needs, and it guides readers to future research in the area of long-life, high energy-density batteries. It describes the state of interdisciplinary research in radiochemistry, tritium storage, semiconductor fabrication, integration into MEMS and other electronic devices, and much more.
