  • Patent number: 9484572
    Abstract: An electrode active material for an all solid state secondary battery, which is able to have the controlled orientation of a crystal face at the interface between an electrode layer and an electrolyte layer in order to enhance the battery performance, and an all solid state secondary battery including the electrode active material. The electrode active material includes a carbon material having an intensity ratio (P002/P100) of 600 or less between the X-ray diffraction peak intensity P002 in the (002) plane and the X-ray diffraction peak intensity P100 in the (100) plane, which are obtained when a surface of a compact prepared by compression molding of a powder of the carbon material at a pressure of 110 MPa is irradiated with X-ray. The all solid state secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a solid electrolyte, and the negative electrode contains the electrode active material.

  • Patent number: 8309257
    Abstract: A first fine particle-containing solution is deposited on an appropriate substrate, and dried to form a first fine particle aggregate layer. Polymer particles are deposited on the first fine particle aggregate layer, and are supplied with a second fine particle-containing solution such that the polymer particles are immersed in the second fine particle-containing solution. The second fine particle-containing solution is dried to form a second fine particle aggregate layer containing a large number of the polymer particles embedded. A first structure precursor is completed at this stage. Then, the first structure precursor is separated from the substrate, and thermally treated. Thus, the production of a first solid electrolyte structure, which has a porous solid electrolyte portion and a dense solid electrolyte portion integrated, is completed.
