  • Publication number: 20210210790
    Abstract: A solid-state battery including a solid-state battery laminate that includes at least one battery constituent unit including a positive electrode layer, a negative electrode layer, and a solid electrolyte layer interposed between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer along a lamination direction, and defining: an overlapping part in which the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer overlap each other in the lamination direction, and a non-overlapping part in which the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer do not overlap each other in the lamination direction. At least one main surface having a normal in the lamination direction has a recess overlapping the overlapping part and defines a step between the overlapping part and the non-overlapping part or in the non-overlapping part.

  • Publication number: 20200259213
    Abstract: An all-solid-state battery having a positive electrode, a negative electrode having a negative electrode active material layer, and a solid electrolyte layer between the positive electrode and the negative electrode material layer. The negative electrode active material layer contains 60% by volume or more of an oxide having a LISICON-type crystal structure. The solid electrolyte layer contains a solid electrolyte having at least one of an oxide having a garnet-type crystal structure or an oxide having a LISICON-type crystal structure.

  • Publication number: 20200235384
    Abstract: A nonpolar all-solid-state battery that includes a first electrode; a second electrode; and a solid electrolyte layer the first electrode and the second electrode. Each of the first electrode and the second electrode includes a first active material and at least one second active material. The first active material functions as both a positive electrode active material and a negative electrode active material. The first active material has a larger specific capacity when functioning as the positive electrode active material than when functioning as the negative electrode active material. In each of the first electrode and the second electrode, a ratio of the first active material to a total amount of the first and second active materials is more than 50% by mass and less than 100% by mass. A mass of each of the first and second active materials is equal between the first electrode and the second electrode.
