<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system internally neutralizing a power source. <P>SOLUTION: A battery includes two contact areas, an electrolyte, and an electronically conductive material that, at a neutralization trip point temperature, increases electronic conductivity internal to the battery between the first contact area and the second contact area. In one embodiment, the electronically conductive material is void from being activated external to the battery. In another embodiment, the battery includes a semiconductor material that includes custom doping to provide the increased electron conductivity at the neutralization trip point temperature. In yet another embodiment, the battery includes an insulator for separating the electronically conductive material until a temperature internal to the battery reaches the neutralization trip point temperature, at which point permits the electronically conductive material to increase the electronic conductivity between the first contact area and the second contact area. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
