A team of physicists and engineers in China has developed an extremely small nuclear battery that they claim is up to 8,000 times more efficient than its predecessors.

Such devices have tended to be small to reduce the amount of nuclear material needed, which has reduced the potential amount of power they could produce.

Further refinement could lead to tiny power packs for small, remote devices such as those sent into deep space.
