Can't because their product doesn't have any use for now. That's why they did this corporate fluff with the african people up front so they can call you racist if you criticize or dare speak ill of their product. This is just another scheme to earn money with their greenwash bs, using africans for their smokes and mirrors. This battery uses the decay of nuclear waste, meaning it only produces heat, so it doesn't provide any electricity by itself, it needs a device to turn that heat into power, and it'll be a very low voltage value per battery, depending on it's size. It could power some stuff but this is way WAY too far from powering things like a smartphone, a flashlight, cars, home appliances, etc.
I just watched 4 minutes of people patting themselves on the back without actually explaining the technology and its applications🤦♂️. Like what kind of voltage output can you get, how long before it's commercially available, is this something that's even viable in the next 5 to 10 years.
Yes, it was quite self-congratulatory wasn't it. Power output is at the microwatt level, so we're talking about a tiny current. Pacemakers, one of the target applications, typically run at 3.5V. The mechanism is very straightforward - the carbon-14 undergoes beta decay emitting beta particles (high-energy electrons) which are absorbed by the synthetic diamond which is itself a semi-conductor so the charge created by the absorption of the beta particles becomes available to the circuit.
@@veronicamiele375 The size of the diamond isn't that important (relatively speaking, the carbon-14 is more important). A huge amount would be required for a car. It's not really practical for that application, the quantities required would be far in excess of the national stock of C-14. The main advantage of this type of nuclear battery is the longevity of the battery. It can power a small device like a pacemaker or a watch for longer than a human lifespan. At present pacemakers have to be swapped out every so often - a couple of years up to a decade or so. But this type of battery would mean a pacemaker that could remain in place for the rest of the persons life, assuming the other parts of the device have that longevity too.
@@alexmckee4683 Unfortunately, diamond has a very high self-absorption of beta particles (about 99%), so the beta-voltaic scheme does not look optimal. It is necessary to make very thin layers (first microns), which significantly limits the energy density. The use of photovoltaics looks more promising at the moment.
Does nuclear materials even produce voltages? If I have not forgotten my high school Physics, C14 releases neutrons (providing heat energy) to become C12. The heat can then be converted to electricity through some elaborate mechanism.
Need more details on this... How much energy does it give out...last time we heard about this in 2016...it was very little power..much less than a double A battery
Well if it last 5000 years and still have half power wouldn’t you say that’s a lot of power lol and it can be done cause our sun is proof it’s got such a little powerful energy core that powers something that a a few million times bigger think of a pea inside a beach ball
This is the first Glimpse of Amor. Thank you from the depths of my Heart & Sould to You All. You've done something more than Wonderful, You did something Necessary. I Kneel down to you, My Friends.
the best marketing is to give an example. what is the storage capacity? charge cycle? volt output? if all you show me is a "diverse" people I see that as a diversion.
Well to be honest most "batteries" are not batteries they are electro chemical things.. capacitors are more aligned with batteries. Lithium batteries is a bit different then other batteries. However this is a generator.. as the nuclear waste will emite beta particles for thousands of years so it generates constantly for our entire lives but it produces such low energy its hardly usable and expensive.
Well ain’t we gave you enough like the tv the internet vaccines and antibiotics and life saving tech that’s used in hospitals we invented tar mac and the concrete we use today the jet engine 70% of the world energy is created by a British Invention we also invented the modern helicopter and the radar submarines and the tank the electric fridge washing machine and the dish washer we started the industrial age most people would not be alive today without British inventions and medicines 1800 there was around 1 billion and cause of the uk there are not 8 billion cause of vaccines and antibiotics and antiseptics
If you want to impress me, find a way to get light photon's from the beta decay. Use those light photons to compute on. Then you will really impress me.
So is it a generator and a battery (not a power storage device but a device that stores potential energy built over its lifespan? and can be stored in this dimond membrane?) I dont get it, its probably very vague on purpose but it seems interesting ! Hope to see more of the process and development :)
1) This isn't new. Working with the University of Cambridge, NDB (Nano-Diamond Battery) obtained a patent for a 28,000-year microwatt battery four years ago (mentioned on their web page). The news said, "the development of the first NDB commercial prototype battery is currently underway and will be available" in 2020. Next year, "The firm hopes to start selling the battery to commercial partners ... within the next two years [2023]. In 2023, no more news and no battery. 2) I did a quick search and found that Arkenlight is commercializing the University of Bristol technology, and they have "low-power nuclear batteries in operation in monitoring equipment in the Stromboli Volcano and a U.K. nuclear waste site." Why wasn't any of this mentioned? The amount of hype in this video is cringe; it needs to be tempered with facts.
You are the best to explain what is radioactive battery, many people think that the battery can be used in car mobile but not, it can only be used in very low power device like heart pacemaker, I've heard a stupid RUclipsr think that it can be used in car,I I think the video is a kind of misleading.
@@amoskoying Well, theoretically it can be used for electric cars. As example, to power a tesla you will need a pure 14C diamond with 1x1x1 m size (if conversion efficiency will be 100%).
Congrats! Does it work with lab-grown diamond too? (Not glass diamond. Real diamond grown in lab) It would be too expensive if only works with natural diamond.
Calm down guys.. it’s just proof of concept… let’s keep motivate them towards improving it. it’s miles away from productisation… material battery scientist here !
Nothing new this approach was derived from Piezo Crystal technology & experiments back early in the 70's, what different is that with diamonds the output under pressure is better than the piezo crystals could generated. They didn't have the tech back then in the 70's to use diamonds but the theory was already on paper that diamonds would be a better choice.
Looking forward to this technology! I'm very excited what the future holds. Of course my government will find a way to tax it, so I won't pay less for energy than now. But still this would provide a lot of conveniences. Keep up the good work.
A great message for today! Thank you for this St. Nicholas gift! I hope and wish much success for the further development and future for all of us ❤️🙏👍
The people in the comments sound smarter than the people in the video. The implications of something this small emitting energy is very tempting no matter how small maybe a higher dose of radiation myte be benifical to increase the output but thats a hole can of worms that i personally would ask someone smarter than me as i am no expert. Still a good idea. Humans in general tend to be more power hungry though.
How much? Where can I buy one. I wanna use it to power my Nokia 3310. I will use it to open wormholes in the time space continuum and finally defeat Skeletor once and for all!
You will never see this technology in your life, and it will never become commercial! Selling batteries is a good way for some companies to make a profit! I like to see batteries lasting in mobile phones for 1 week, and even that is not possible until today !!!
You are wrong bro.. there are many area that need this type of battery technology and she mentioned it, like Heart pace maker. Just imargine all computers integrated circuits having own built in source of power... all thats needed will be just ground and signal no power rails ..
I like this innovation on nuclear tech. It can help destigmatize fear on anything nuclear. The proverbs: “Every Problem has the seed of it's own solution.” the problem is too much 'carbon' in the atmosphere that cause greenhouse gases. Carbon can also be used as carbon free energy source.
This uses carbon-14, which is produced naturally in the atmosphere but recovery of that natural resource is very energy intensive. The carbon-14 used in this experimentation was almost certainly artificially produced which is also extremely energy intensive, though it can be a byproduct of other useful work. However it certainly isn't something that's likely to scale up without massive amounts of conventional energy being produced either through nuclear power or using solar power to power particle accelerators.
@aleximckee4683 if the battery become integral part of microships then it may be possible to use them in computers ..however we dont know howmuch voltage the battery produces, was not mentioned until then...
Would this be considered exotic material ? We are a species that won't stand still, we continually are moving forward to change out world in such a way that it supports us without us doing anything..Or are we attempting to create a world where we are not being held back, by our primitive restraints. Our imagination is our most powerful tool. Is Science fiction a blueprint, created by our subconscious to building our eventual future?
Hey guys you might want to check out dr chris mcginty founder of the mcginty equation he talks about Ai holographic quantum computing and zero point energy and wormholes.
@@Ardi_0yeah and this world we live in is down to the British when we invented so much that’s made our lifes better before 1800 there was 1 billion people and thanks to British inventions like antibiotics and vaccines there are over 8 billion people
Firstly, the preview specifically shows two "inclusive" ones, when the general composition of the team is 8 scientists. Secondly, we don't know their contribution to that work.
@@0xfeedfeed Glad you saw them. But we do agree. My thesis is you get a wider range of views - and get further in life for it. No matter the extent of individual contributions. Best.

It's because why an achievement and useful... it is only do for a small few niches.
What voltage does it put out constantly?
Probably not much, the use cases seem to be pacemakers and watches at the moment.
Does nuclear materials even produce voltages? If I have not forgotten my high school Physics, C14 releases neutrons (providing heat energy) to become C12. The heat can then be converted to electricity through some elaborate mechanism.
Shhhh. You're asking too many questions.
This concept is shown at least 2 decades ago in one of the South Indian movies.
Theoretically it can be done back then we just didn't have the equipment & tech at the time.
Hold on, this is absolutely game changing !
Power on, friends of the world- your research is a priceless gift.
What's the reaction? Is it direct energy harvesting of carbon-14 radioactive decay?
Probably yes
Radioactive decaying
This it great work! The only thing we have to do is wait and watch for how effective and sustainable it is.

@@davidware9549 What the hell are you talking about? That's not what we're talking about 😐
