Nuclear batteries began in 1913, when Henry Moseley first demonstrated a current generated by charged-particle radiation. In the 1950s and 1960s, this field of research got much attention for applications requiring long-life power sources for spacecraft. In 1954, RCA researched a small atomic battery for small radio receivers and hearing aids. [4]

A battery converts chemical energy to electrical energy and is composed of three general parts: Anode (positive electrode); Cathode (negative electrode); Electrolyte; The anode and cathode have two different chemical potentials, which depend on the reactions that occur at either terminus.
Diagram of an RTG used on the Cassini probe. A radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG, RITEG), sometimes referred to as a radioisotope power system (RPS), is a type of nuclear battery that uses an array of thermocouples to convert the heat released by the decay of a suitable radioactive material into electricity by the Seebeck effect.
This is a list of important publications in chemistry, organized by field. [1] [2] [3] [4]Some factors that correlate with publication notability include: Topic creator – A publication that created a new topic.
The usable charge storage capacity of NCA is about 180 to 200 mAh/g. [1] This is well below the theoretical values; for LiNi 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 this is 279 mAh/g. [2] However, the capacity of NCA is significantly higher than that of alternative materials such as lithium cobalt oxide LiCoO 2 with 148 mAh/g, lithium iron phosphate LiFePO 4 with 165 mAh/g and NMC 333 LiNi 0.33 Mn 0.33 Co 0. ...
