将同位素辐射衰变能转换为电能主要有4种转换机制:热电转换式、直接充电式、直接能量转换式、间接能量转换式。热电转换式同位素电池使用高能辐射源,使用成本高、难于微型化。直接充电式同位素电池电流很小,驱动能力极弱。间接转换式同位素电池转换效率普遍偏低(<1%)。直接能量转换式同位素电池(又称贝塔伏特电池或β伏特电池)利用贝塔伏特效应,通过收集低能β辐射粒子在半导体材料中激发出的电子和空穴,从而实现电流倍增,可极大地提高了电流密度和转换效率。β伏特同位素电池的能量转换效率随半导体材料禁带宽度的增加而提高,其最高理论的量转换效率可达到32%。虽然贝塔伏特电池有较高的理论能量转换效率,但目前技术实现的转化效率仍低于5%,远未达到工程应用的程度。因此,如何提高贝塔伏特电池的能量转换效率是目前研究的当务之急。There are four main conversion mechanisms for converting isotope radiation decay energy into electrical energy: thermoelectric conversion, direct charge, direct energy conversion, and indirect energy conversion. Thermoelectric conversion isotope batteries use high-energy radiation sources, which are expensive to use and difficult to miniaturize. The direct-charged isotope battery has a small current and a very weak driving capability. Indirect conversion isotope battery conversion efficiency is generally low (<1%). Direct energy conversion isotope batteries (also known as betavoltaic cells or beta volt cells) use the betavolta effect to maximize current doubling by collecting electrons and holes excited by low-energy beta radiation particles in the semiconductor material. Current density and conversion efficiency. The energy conversion efficiency of the β-volt isotope battery increases with the increase of the forbidden band width of the semiconductor material, and the highest theoretical conversion efficiency can reach 32%. Although the betavoltaic cell has a high theoretical energy conversion efficiency, the conversion efficiency achieved by the current technology is still less than 5%, far from the extent of engineering application. Therefore, how to improve the energy conversion efficiency of betavolta batteries is a top priority for current research.

Same At the time, the wide bandgap semiconductor has a high radiation damage threshold and is highly resistant to radiation damage. The nanotube/porous material has a high specific surface area, which greatly increases the contact area between the radiation source and the semiconductor material, thereby improving the energy conversion efficiency and output power of the betavoltaic battery.
