Abstract
A modified Nuclear Thermionic Avalanche Cell (NTAC) to reduce back-scatter losses of avalanche electrons emitted by a NTAC. The present invention provides a novel topological surface configuration for electron collector layers in NTAC devices. Sawtooth configurations of the surface configurations of electron collector layers allow for the recapture of back-scattered electrons, increasing the efficiency of NTAC devices as well as reducing thermal loading and increasing NTAC efficiency.
