Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides: a solid-state battery which is not susceptible to decrease of the discharging capacity even if charge and discharge are repeated; and a method for producing a solid-state battery, which enables the achievement of a good bonded interface between a solid electrolyte layer and a anode layer by a simple process. A solid-state battery 1 according to the present invention is provided with a cathode layer 20, a anode layer 30 and a solid electrolyte layer 40 that is arranged between the cathode layer 20 and the anode layer 30. The anode layer 30 is provided with an aluminum layer 31 that is in contact with the solid electrolyte layer 40, a lithium layer 32, and an aluminum-lithium alloy layer 33 that is arranged between the aluminum layer 31 and the lithium layer 32.

1 . A solid-state battery comprising a cathode electrode layer, an anode electrode layer and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the cathode electrode layer and the anode electrode layer, wherein the anode electrode layer comprises an aluminum layer in contact with the solid electrolyte layer, a lithium layer and an aluminum-lithium alloy layer disposed between the aluminum layer and the lithium layer. 2 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein a film thickness of the anode electrode layer is 10 to 400 μm. 3 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of lithium to aluminum, Li:Al, in the anode electrode layer is 30:70 to 80:20. 4 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte layer is a sulfide-based solid electrolyte material. 5 . A method for manufacturing a solid-state battery comprising a cathode electrode layer, an anode electrode layer comprising an aluminum layer and a lithium layer, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the cathode electrode layer and the anode electrode layer, the method comprising: a step of applying a solid electrolyte material to an aluminum plate for forming the aluminum layer to form the solid electrolyte layer; and a step of press joining a laminate to obtain the solid-state battery, with the laminate being obtained by disposing the cathode electrode layer on the solid electrolyte layer formed on one surface of the aluminum plate, and, disposing a lithium plate for forming the lithium layer on the other surface of the aluminum plate on which the solid electrolyte layer is not formed. 6 . The method for manufacturing a solid-state battery according to claim 5 , wherein the method further comprises a step of cutting the press joined solid-state battery to a predetermined length under compression. 7 . The method for manufacturing a solid-state battery according to claim 5 , wherein the press joining is performed by a roll pressing method. 8 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein a film thickness of the anode electrode layer is 10 to 400 μm, wherein a molar ratio of lithium to aluminum, Li:Al, in the anode electrode layer is 30:70 to 80:20. 9 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein a film thickness of the anode electrode layer is 10 to 400 μm, wherein the solid electrolyte layer is a sulfide-based solid electrolyte material. 10 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 . wherein a molar ratio of lithium to aluminum, Li:Al, in the anode electrode layer is 30:70 to 80:20, wherein the solid electrolyte layer is a sulfide-based solid electrolyte material. 11 . The solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein a film thickness of the anode electrode layer is 10 to 400 μm, wherein a molar ratio of lithium to aluminum, Li:Al, in the anode electrode layer is 30:70 to 80:20, wherein the solid electrolyte layer is a sulfide-based solid electrolyte material. 12 . The method for manufacturing a solid-state battery according to claim 5 , wherein the method further comprises a step of cutting the press joined solid-state battery to a predetermined length under compression, wherein the press joining is performed by a roll pressing method.
