To get the general level of electron energy to increase in a metal, I
imagine you can't allow it to drain off from a localized region into a
larger body of infinite size.  You have to have a smaller system, with a
potential barrier surrounding the system so that the energy is retained.
 This suggests that particles or otherwise small structures would be
preferable to a block of solid metal.

Following are some very nice consequences of a direct transfer of
electrostatic energy from the [pd]* decay to the electronic structure:

   - It makes sense of the small particle size requirement.
   - It suggests that direct conversion to electricity could be worked out
   somehow.
   - It opens the possibility for daughters being born with almost no
   kinetic energy.
   - It *requires* a reaction and a branch that would normally involve a
   gamma, rather than making these reactions and branches out as liabilities.
   - It distributes the energy of the reaction across the whole electronic
   structure, so that there need not be Bremsstrahlung.
