Abstract: The invention is a proton conductor in liquid form, comprising a mixture of the following components: (a) an acid addition salt of a nitrogen base, having the formula: ##STR1## wherein: Z.sub.1, Z.sub.2, Z.sub.3 and Z.sub.4, identical or different, each represent a group --N.dbd. or --C(Y.sub.i).dbd. in which Y.sub.i represents a hydrogen atom, a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a fluoroalkyl radical having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or an oxoalkyl or azaalkyl radical having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one and at most two of the groups Z.sub.1, Z.sub.2, Z.sub.3 and Z.sub.4 represents --N.dbd., two adjacent carbon atoms being optionally hydrogenated and the nitrogen base optionally being part of a polymeric network, and X.sup.- represents an anion derived from an acid selected from the group consisting of sulfonic acids of formula R.sub.F SO.sub.3 H, sulfonimides of formula (R.sub.F SO.sub.2) (R'.sub.F SO.sub.2)NH and methylides of formula (R.sub.F SO.sub.2) (R'.

Abstract: At least one laser beam is focused on one side of an assembly to be cut at a point on the side which is part of the cutting profile and which is called the point of impact of the beam on side side, in order to cause at that point a disintegration of the material of the assembly. The laser beam is moved in relation to the assembly so that the impact point describes a trajectory which corresponds to the desired cutting profile, while maintaining a controlled atmosphere in the area around the impact point. Uses particularly include cutting solid polymer electrolyte lithium thin film electrochemical generators, or cutting precursors of such generators.

Abstract: Electrochemical cells containing lithium and a solid polymer electrolyte in the form of thin films are produced by making multilayer assemblies from double-layer solid polymer electrolyte/composite positive electrode sub-assemblies which are subsequently associated with the other constituent layers of the cell so that the multilayer assembly so obtained comprises a layer of a metal of low ductility. Cells may be made from multilayer assemblies by stacking, rolling or bending techniques.
