History of the battery
The first battery was invented in 1800 by Alessandro Volta. Although it was of great value for experimental purposes, its limitations made it impractical for large current drain. Later batteries, starting with John Frederic Daniell''s wet cell in 1836, provided more reliable currents and were adopted by industry for use in stationary devices, particularly in …

14.4: Applications of Redox Reactions
A portable voltaic cell that generates electricity to power devices for our convenience is called a battery. All batteries are based on redox reactions. The first battery (called a "voltaic pile") was constructed by the Italian scientist Alessandro Volta in 1800 and was based on the copper/zinc reaction depicted in Figure (PageIndex{1}) - A Redox …

Galvanic cells are extensions of spontaneous redox reactions, but have been merely designed to harness the energy produced from said reaction. For example, when one immerses a strip of zinc metal (Zn) in an aqueous solution of copper sulfate (CuSO4), dark-colored solid deposits will collect on the surface of the zinc metal and the blue color characteristic of the Cu ion disappears fro…

Volta''s concept of contact potential and its demise When Alessandro Volta invented the "pile" (battery) at the turn of the nineteenth century (see figure 1), his understanding of its mechanism was based on the concept of the contact potential: the contact between two different metals (zinc and silver in his original apparatus) created a "tension" that drove …

Development of rapid beta detector using PIN diode to be used in quality control of Ni-63 beta-voltaic battery
A beta-voltaic battery converts the energy of a radioisotope decay into power energy. It generates electricity as radiation particles enter the p–n junction of a semiconductor. Since semiconductors are vulnerable to radiation damage [1,2,3], a unit beta cell, which is a fundamental unit of the beta-voltaic battery, is composed of a pure beta …
