An improved voltage unipolar generator utilizing a pair of electrically interconnected, counter-rotating, circumferentially segmented, conductive disks. Rolling contacts such as conductive balls or tapered pins are used to electrically interconnect the two counter-rotating disks in a manner that places the majority of the disks' segments in an electrical series. An axially magnetized co-rotating, neodymium-iron-boron permanent magnet having a diameter similar to said disks is the preferred field source. A ferrite disk of appropriate thickness is placed opposite the field source to compress said disks and rolling contacts for optimized electrical interconnection of said disk segments.
