چکیده | ||
The effect of source backscattering and self-absorption on the basic parameters of a 147Pm2O3/Si planar betavoltaic devices is covered. Calculations show that self-absorption loss can reach up to 31.579% of the actual activity and overall efficiency can be reduced from 4.361% to 4.274%. If self-absorption and source backscattering are considered together it is observed that the source backscattering factor compensates to some extent the reduction of the actual activity induced by the self-absorption and ultimately, overall conversion efficiency can reach up to 4.352%. Also, as a case study lower bounds on the size of planar and spherical betavoltaic cells are reported. Further, the effect of parameters such as nominal source curie content, the total number of fuel atoms in the division’s volume, total power released by the source, the maximum energy of beta particles, and semiconductor density in the size of the nuclear battery was investigated. | ||
