Ashok Das presented on nuclear batteries as a portable energy source. Nuclear batteries use radioactive isotopes to generate electricity through betavoltaics or direct charge generators. They have advantages over chemical batteries like longer lifetime, no need for replacement, and being more compact and reliable. Nuclear batteries could potentially power applications in space, medicine, mobile devices, automobiles, underwater probes, and MEMS devices. However, they also present drawbacks related to safety from radioactivity.
An opto-electric nuclear battery is a device that converts nuclear energy into light, which it then uses to generate electrical energy. A beta-emitter such as technetium-99 or strontium-90 is suspended in a gas or liquid containing luminescent gas molecules of the excimer type, constituting a "dust plasma." This permits a nearly lossless emission of beta electrons from the emitting dust particles
A burgeoning need exists today for small, compact, reliable, lightweight and self-contained rugged power supplies to provide electrical power in such applications as electric automobiles, homes, industrial, agricultural, recreational, remote monitoring systems, spacecraft and deep-sea probes. Radar, advanced communication satellites and especially high technology weapon platforms will require much larger power source than today’s power systems can deliver. Nuclear battery could be a solution to this need of large amount of power

Nuclear batteries use the incredible amount of energy released naturally by tiny bits of radio active material without any fission or fusion taking place inside the battery. These devices use thin radioactive films that pack in energy at densities thousands of times greater than those of lithium-ion batteries. Because of the high energy density nuclear batteries are extremely small in size. Considering the small size and shape of the battery the scientists who developed that battery fancifully call it as "DAINTIEST DYNAMO". The word 'dainty' means pretty.
Chemical batteries require frequent replacements and are bulky.
Fuel and Solar cells are expensive and requires sunlight respectively.
Need for compact, reliable, light weight and long life power supplies.
Nuclear batteries have lifespan upto decades and nearly 200 times more efficient.
Do not rely on nuclear reaction so, no radioactive wastes.
Uses emissions from radioactive isotope to generate electricity.
Can be used in inaccessible and extreme conditions.
The terms atomic battery, nuclear battery, tritium battery and radioisotope generator are used to describe a device which uses energy from the decay of a radioactive isotope to generate electricity. Like nuclear reactors they generate electricity from atomic energy, but differ in that they do not use a chain reaction.

2. WHY NUCLEAR BATTERY
• Chemical batteries require frequent
replacements and are bulky.
• Need for compact, reliable, light weight
and long life power supplies.
3. RADIOISOTOPES AND
RADIATIONS
• Radioisotopes are artificially produced, unstable
atoms of a chemical element, which have a different
number of neutrons in the nucleus, but the same
number of protons and the same chemical properties.
4. WHAT IS NUCLEAR BATTERY
• Atomic battery, also known as nuclear battery is
a device which uses emissions of radioactive
isotope to generate electricity. Unlike nuclear
reactors, they do not use a chain reaction.
5. METHOD OF CONVERTING RADIOACTIVE
DECAY ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY
• The main feature is their ability to
produce electricity during years or even
dozens of years depending on the half
life of the radioisotope.
