Direct conversion of nuclear energy into electric energy, based on thermionic devices, is investigated. Various materials possessing good thermo- emission properties are analyzed, and results of tests with a converter in an active reactor zone are reported. The experiments demonstrate that during operation an inert gas filled converter becomes a cesium plasma diode, eliminating the use of cesium vapors and improving the performance and life of the converter.
