University of MissouriOffice of Technology Management & Industry RelationsNon-Confidential Abstract of InventionUM Disclosure No. 09UMC012Radioisotope Microbattery Based on Liquid SemiconductorsA major obstacle to realizing the potential of miniature micromechanical devices has been the power source. Large batteries have prevented some of these systems from being employed as stand-alone devices. A long lasting source is also important in many potential micro/nanotechnology systems. The invention reports a novel technique using liquid semiconductors for a highly efficient and long-life microbattery based on MEMS technology.POTENTIAL AREAS OF APPLICATIONS:• Small power sources• Long life batteriesMAIN ADVANTAGES OF INVENTION:• Long life and reliable power source• Avoids structural damage from radiation• Mass produciblePOSSIBLE DISADVANTAGES OF INVENTION:• None at this timeSTATE OF DEVELOPMENT:• Prototype developedFURTHER R&D REQUIRED• Improvement in output powerLICENSING POTENTIAL:• University seeks licensee with the potential to commercializePATENT STATUS:• Patent application on fileINVENTOR(S):• Jae Kwon, Tongtawee WacharasindhuCONTACT INFO: Office of Technology Management & Industry Relations Wayne C.
