Abstract

The invention discloses a 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery and a manufacturing method of the 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery. The 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery and the manufacturing method mainly solve the problems that an existing alpha irradiation battery is low in energy conversion rate and output power. The manufacturing method includes the implementation steps of sequentially growing an N type lightly-doped 4H-SiC epitaxial layer and a P type highly-doped 4H-SiC epitaxial layer on a washed 4H-SiC substrate in an epitaxial mode, forming ohmic contact electrodes on the non-epitaxial back face of the P type highly-doped epitaxial layer and the non-epitaxial back face of the SiC substrate through deposition, conducting photoetching on the P type ohmic contact electrodes to obtain groove windows, conducting etching to obtain grooves, and placing alpha irradiation sources in the grooves to obtain the 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery. The 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery manufactured according to the method has the advantages that the contact area between the alpha irradiation battery and the alpha irradiation sources is large, the nuclear raw material utilization rate and the energy collection rate are high, and the battery output current and the battery output voltage are large; the 3D type PIN structure alpha irradiation battery can unceasingly supply power for miniature circuits or can supply power on the occasions where long-time power supply is needed but not unmanned.
