Couldn’t we have a lead box lined with these radiation to electricity converters with a small amount of radioactive material in the center, and have an energy generating device that would last for thousands or even millions of years? Imagine putting the sun in a box lined with solar cells, but on a much smaller scale.
Is there a reason this wouldn’t work?
There is the nano/nuclear diamond battery thing too, which is supposed to work like this but apparently produces very little energy if any
