UK Scientists Turn Nuclear Waste into “Diamond Batteries”

​

A group of researchers at the University of Bristol, UK claim they have managed to turn radioactive graphite waste into efficient artificial “diamond batteries” that could generate electricity and with a lifespan of over 5,000 years. The amount of energy per battery is quite small, however they would be particularly useful for low-power applications, such as pacemakers, satellites and high-altitude drones.
