Best Answer

The present invention relates to a gamma-electric cell for producing a high-output voltage from a source of radiation wherein the gamma-electric cell includes a central collector constructed of a dense metal and with the central collector encapsulated within an outer layer of dielectric material. A further conductive layer is then disposed on or within the dielectric material so as to provide for a high voltage output between the conductive layer and the central collector upon the reception of radiation by the gamma-electric cell. The invention also includes the use of a plurality of collectors radiating from the central collector throughout the dielectric material so as to increase the collection area and thereby increase the current and/or output voltage. Other aspects of the invention are directed to the method of producing a high voltage output gamma-electric cell by encapsulation techniques using a dielectric material which is castable and curable so as to provide for an intimate contact between the collectors and the dielectric material which surrounds and encapsulates the collectors. Other aspects of the method of encapsulation of the present invention include the use of specific dielectric materials and also the elimination of trapped gases within the dielectric material.

What are the harmful effects of gamma radiation?

Gamma radiation can damage cells and DNA, leading to potential health risks such as cancer, radiation sickness, and cell mutations. Excessive exposure to gamma radiation can have severe consequences on the body's tissues and organs, potentially causing acute and long-term health problems.


What does gamma cause?

Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that can cause damage to living cells by breaking chemical bonds and disrupting cellular function. Prolonged exposure to gamma rays can lead to cell mutations, genetic damage, and an increased risk of developing cancer.


What is Henry Tomas Sampsons impact on society?

Henry Thomas Sampson invented the gamma electric cell, a device that used direct-conversion energy in order to convert gamma radiation to electricity. The invention's intent is to provide auxiliary power to a nuclear reactor that is shielding. He is sometimes mistakenly credited with inventing the cell phone.
