Foamed nuclear cell

An electric current generating cell comprising:

• an open-cellular foamed semiconductor;
• a vessel containing such open-cellular foamed semiconductor;
• a continuous electroconductive layer formed around the outer sides of said open-cellular foamed semiconductor;
• means to excite said semiconductor to produce electric current;
• electrode means to carry said electric current outside said open-cellular foam semiconductor, said electrode means being further adapted to form said cells output terminals, said electrodes means including:
• a first electrode entered into said vessel and surrounded by said open-cellular foam semiconductor;
• a second electrode contiguous with said continuous electroconductive layer around said open-cellular foamed semiconductor;
• and
• said means to excite said semiconductor including:
• means to enter gas into said cell;
• and
• a gas entered into said cell through said means to enter gas to cause the production of electricity from said cell.
