Types of Batteries
Batteries can be divided into two major
categories,
primary batteries and
secondary batteries.A primary battery is a
disposal kind of battery.Once used it cannot

batteries. Once empty, it can be recharged
again. This charging and discharging can
happen many times depending on the
battery type.
Alkaline batteries, Mercury batteries,
Silver-Oxide batteries, and Zinc carbon
batteries are examples of primary batteries
whereas Lead-Acid batteries and Lithium
INTRODUCTION-:
With the advancement in Technology, there
exist a great need for small,compact, reliable
& light weight power supplies.
For very high power applications such as
RADAR, adv. Communication satellites & for
high Tech. weapons Nuclear Battery is used.
Nuclear Battery: Thermo-Electric generator
converts the radio active energy released
during decay of natural radio active element
into electrical energy.
A long-term energy source with life-span
measured in decades & 200 times efficient
than ordinary battery.
Types of nuclear

Scientists have developed
WORKING:
As the Ni-63 decays it emits beta
particles, which are high-energy electrons
that spontaneously fly out of the
radioisotope's unstable nucleus.
The emitted beta particles ionized the
diode's atoms, exciting unpaired
electrons and holes that are separated at
the vicinity of the p-n interface.
These separated electrons and holes
streamed away form the junction,
producing current.
It has been found that beta particles
with energies below 250KeV do not cause
substantial damage in Si .
