Cold fusion device

Cathode materials for electolytic device in a cold nuclear fusion device are restricted to palladium and titanium, but highly efficient palladium is a noble metal and is expensive. Then, an interlayer compound of graphite/alkali metal is used for the cathode material instead of palladium or titanium. The interlayer compound is prepared by the inclusion of alkali metals contained between layers of carbon atoms of planer structure made by infinite condensation of benzene rings. The interlayer compound has a remarkable hydrogen absorbing performance, and hydrogen molecules are captured into the plane of potassium atoms while filling the gaps between each of the potassium atoms. In this way, an economical cold nuclear fusion reaction device can be attained. (N.H.)
