The basic structure of this nuclear battery consists of a converter, a substrate, a source of nickel-63 and a protective layer.

Chinese startup Betavolt has unveiled a compact nuclear battery that can power devices for 50 years without needing to be recharged.

The construction is based on nickel-63 and diamond semiconductors in a module smaller than a coin (15x15x5 mm). According to the manufacturer’s specifications, the battery can produce 100 microwatts of power and a voltage of 3V.

The company ensures that such a power source is safe for both people and the environment: the housing eliminates radiation, and the nuclear elements will dissipate after a period of time. In addition, the development is capable of operating in the temperature range from -60°C to 120°C.

Betavolt said production versions of the battery are undergoing full testing and are being prepared for mass production in 2025.

It was previously reported that a new trend in plastic surgery for pets has emerged in China.
