Abstract: A solid-state battery includes a solid-state battery body and a coating film. The solid-state battery body has an electrolyte layer containing a solid electrolyte, a positive electrode layer formed on a part of a first principal plane of the electrolyte layer, and a negative electrode layer formed on a part of a second principal plane of the electrolyte layer opposite to the first principal plane. The coating film has an insulating property and covers the solid-state battery body so as to expose a first portion of the positive electrode layer and a second portion of the negative electrode layer. The coating film has hardness higher than that of solid electrolytes contained in the solid-state battery body.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a solid-state battery includes forming an electrode that includes a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer facing the first electrode layer and that further includes a buried layer interposed between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer so as to surround a contact portion where these electrode layers contact each other. For the buried layer, a solid electrolyte with lower electron conductivity than an electrode active material is used, for example. The buried layer is provided between the edge portion of the first electrode layer and the edge portion of the second electrode layer, so that deformation of the first electrode layer and second electrode layer is prevented in the subsequent lamination and thermocompression bonding and thus the occurrence of a short circuit due to such deformation is prevented in the solid-state battery.

Abstract: There is provided an audio device including a control section configured to cause an audio signal to be output, the audio signal including a sound signal obtained through playback of content and a sound signal received from a communication partner device, and a sound processing section configured to generate an elimination signal obtained by eliminating a given sound signal from a microphone detection signal, which is the audio signal that is propagated and detected by a microphone. The control section causes the communication partner device to transmit the elimination signal.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and an information processing method which are capable of reducing consumption of standby power of an HDMI-CEC support device. An AV amplifier which is an HDMI-CEC support device and serves as an HDMI repeater transmits a polling signal to a television receiver which is an HDMI-CEC support device and serves as an HDMI sink based on the premise that it is connected via an HDMI cable at predetermined time intervals, and the AV amplifier is regarded as being connected via the HDMI cable as long as an ACK is received. Then, after the HDMI cable is removed, no ACK is returned to the AV amplifier, the HDMI cable is regarded as being removed accordingly, and thus an operation of a CPU of the AV amplifier is stopped, whereby power saving is achieved. The present disclosure can be applied to an HDMI-CEC support device.
