The South Korea Betavoltaic Device Market Size is Anticipated to Hold a Significant Share by 2033, Growing at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2023 to 2033.

Market Overview

A betavoltaic device is essentially a battery that produces an electric current in light of the beta particles that are produced by a radioactive source, typically a low-energy beta emitter, such as tritium. The devices are working on a principle similar to that which applies to photovoltaic cells but convert beta radiation instead of light into electricity. The chief advantage of betavoltaic devices is that they can generally provide a power supply for many years or even decades. It makes them highly suitable for applications where regular maintenance or replacement of batteries is impractical. Betavoltaic devices, such as devices used in deep space missions, underwater sensors, and pacemakers, are commonly used in remote or hard-to-access locations. They are used in military and aerospace applications where reliability and very long operational life are required. Other applications include power sources for micro-systems, implantable medical devices, and backup power for critical systems.
