[extropy-chat] A ROOM-TEMPERATURE PALM-SIZED NUCLEAR FUSION DEVICE

[Adrian Tymes]

One can get bursts of nuclear fusion from small devices.  That's been
known for a while.  The problem is getting a net production of
electricity - in this case, more joules out than are consumed by, for
example, heating the crystal.  (Looking at energy creation without
acknowledging energy consumption is like looking at income without
acknowledging expenses.)

Still, this might have use as a neutron source for MEMS devices.
