  • PLANAR ALKALI METAL-BETA BATTERY
    Publication number: 20150017490
    Abstract: An advanced planar alkali metal-beta battery made by stacking a plurality of individual planar cells, where the individual cells comprises a one-piece ceramic unibody construction with an interior divided by an alkali-ion conducting solid electrolyte into separate cathode and anode compartments. The cathode comprises a premanufactured solid pellet of active cathode materials. A bellows is provided to reduce pressure accumulation in the cathode compartment.
