Abstract
Provided herein is a diamond gammavoltaic cell comprising: a diamond body having a diamond body surface including first and second opposing surfaces; a low-barrier electrical contact formed on the first surface; and a high-barrier electrical contact formed on the second surface, wherein the diamond body surface that is not in contact with either the low-barrier electrical contact or the high-barrier electrical contact is at least partially surface transfer doped to provide a p-type surface.
