- W2156090674 abstract "Semiconductors that are based on uranium dioxide (or other actinide compounds) appear possible and could offer significant improvements in performance as compared to conventional Si, Ge, and GaAs materials. The energy band gap (forbidden band gap) for uranium dioxide (UO 2 ) lies between Si and GaAs at the optimum of the band gap vs efficiency curve (1), indicating that one should be able to use uranium oxides to make very efficient solar cells, semiconductors, or other electronic device. The electrical conductivity of intrinsic UO 2 is approximately the same as GaAs (1). The dielectric constant of UO 2 (∼22) is nearly double that for Si (11.2) and GaAs (14.1) (2), perhaps making UO 2 better suited for integrated circuits than Si, Ge, and GaAs. The ceramic oxides of uranium (e.g., U 3 O 8 or UO 2 ) can withstand much higher operating temperatures (∼2600 K) than can Si or GaAs (<473 K). In addition, oxides are much more resistive to radiation damage, perhaps making uranium oxides more suitable for fabrication of devices used in special (e.g., space and military) applications. Thus, it appears that a new higher performance class of semiconductors are possible: uranium oxide-based semiconductors. This paper discusses the electronic properties of uranium dioxide and describes the potential performance advantages of uranium dioxide as compared to conventional semiconductor materials. The need for additional fundamental data is discussed. The results of fabricating and testing a uraniumbased diode will be presented if the test results are available in time. This work was conducted under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy's Depleted Uranium Uses Research and Development Program." @default.
