Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, there are still many problems in the research of silicon carbide PN-type isotope cells using H-3. The biggest problem is how to avoid the recombination loss of irradiated carriers on the surface of the device.
like image 3 As shown, the range of electrons generated by H-3 is relatively shallow, and the peak is close to the device surface, and the loss of radiation-induced carriers caused by surface recombination is unavoidable

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor devices and semiconductor technology, and in particular relates to an H-3 silicon carbide PN type isotope battery and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The isotope battery is an energy conversion device that converts nuclear radiation energy into electrical energy by using the radiovoltaic effect produced by charged particles produced by the decay of radioactive isotopes in semiconductor devices. Among many types of micro-energy sources, isotope batteries are regarded as the most ideal long-term energy sources for MEMS systems due to their high reliability, easy integration, and strong anti-interference. High output power is the prerequisite for the wide application of micronuclear batteries. However, due to the self-absorption effect and cost of isotope sources, it is difficult for micronuclear batteries to increase the output power by increasing the activity of ...
