Eine Diamantenbatterie wäre eine aus schwach radioaktivem 14C-Abfall hergestellte langlebige Primärzelle bzw. Radionuklidbatterie. Die noch nicht marktreife Entwicklung erfolgte am Cabot Institute an der University of Bristol und wurde 2016 vom Physikprofessor Tom Scott vorgestellt.
Diamond battery is the name of a nuclear battery concept proposed by the University of Bristol Cabot Institute during its annual lecture held on 25 November 2016 at the Wills Memorial Building. This battery is proposed to run on the radioactivity of waste graphite blocks (previously used as neutron moderator material in graphite-moderated reactors) and would generate small amounts of electricity for thousands of years.
The battery is a betavoltaic cell using carbon-14 (14C) in the form of diamond-like carbon (DLC) as the beta radiation source, and additional normal-carbon DLC to make the necessary semiconductor junction and encapsulate the carbon-14.
