Abstract

Disclosed is an all-solid battery, including a cathode, an anode, and a solid electrolyte layer. The solid electrolyte layer may include a first solid electrolyte having an ionic conductivity ranging from greater than about 5×10 −3 S/cm to about 1×10 −1 S/cm and a second solid electrolyte having an ionic conductivity ranging from greater than about 5×10 −4 S/cm to about 1×10 −2 S/cm.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An all-solid battery, comprising:
a cathode;
an anode; and
a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the cathode and the anode,
wherein the solid electrolyte layer comprises a first solid electrolyte having an ionic conductivity ranging from greater than about 5×10 −3 S/cm to about 1×10 −1 S/cm and a second solid electrolyte having an ionic conductivity ranging from greater than about 5×10 −4 S/cm to about 1×10 −2 S/cm.

2. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein the first solid electrolyte is at least one crystalline sulfide solid electrolyte selected from the group consisting of Li—Ge—P—S, Li—Si—P—S—Cl, Li—P—S—Cl, Li—P—S—Br and Li—P—S—Br—Cl.

3. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein the second solid electrolyte is at least one amorphous sulfide solid electrolyte selected from the group consisting of LiILi 2 S—P 2 S 5 , LiI—Li 2 S—B 2 S 3 , Li 3 PO 4 —Li 2 S—Si 2 S, Li 3 PO 4 —Li 2 S—SiS 2 , LiPO 4 —Li 2 S—SiS, LiI—Li 2 S—P 2 O 5 , LiI—Li 3 PO 4 —P 2 S 5 , Li 3 PS 4 , and Li 2 S—P 2 S 5 .

4. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein a particle size of the second solid electrolyte is less than a particle size of the first solid electrolyte.

5. The all-solid battery of claim 4 , wherein the first solid electrolyte has a particle size of about 5 to 20 μm.

6. The all-solid battery of claim 4 , wherein the second solid electrolyte has a particle size of about 0.5 to 4 μm.

7. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein a weight ratio of the first solid electrolyte to the second solid electrolyte is about 50:50 to 90:10.

8. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein the cathode comprises the first solid electrolyte, the second solid electrolyte and a cathode active material.

9. The all-solid battery of claim 8 , wherein the cathode active material is at least one selected from the group consisting of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium iron phosphate, nickel cobalt aluminum, and nickel cobalt manganese.

10. The all-solid battery of claim 1 , wherein the anode comprises the first solid electrolyte, the second solid electrolyte, and an anode active material.

11. The all-solid battery of claim 10 , wherein the anode active material is at least one selected from the group consisting of graphitizable carbon (soft carbon), non-graphitizable carbon (hard carbon), natural graphite, artificial graphite, silicon (Si) and tin (Sn).

12. A vehicle comprising an all-solid battery of claim 1 .
