Modeling and optimization of GaN-based betavoltaic batteries: Comparison of p–n and p–i–n junctions

Nuclear battery is a promising long-life power source. Selecting semiconductors with high limit efficiency and appropriate device structures effectively improves their output performance. In this work, a GaN-based (hexagonal) betavoltaic battery with Ni63 source was simulated by Monte Carlo codes an...
