Dear Sir, Recently I wrote to you concerning muon catalyzed fusion at the core of a fast neutron fission reactor.
The efficiency of such a reactor can further be improved by applying the Actinide material in the form of semi-conductor diodes, such that fission fragments free electrons which are then collected and generate a useful current. (see http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6730538.html ). This might constitute an effective topping mechanism in a combined cycle reactor, effectively increasing the percentage of energy converted into useful electrical power.
