Abstract

An all-solid-state battery includes a positive electrode layer including a positive electrode current collector layer and a positive electrode active material layer provided on the positive electrode current collector layer, a negative electrode layer including a negative electrode current collector layer and a negative electrode active material layer provided on the negative electrode current collector layer, and a solid electrolyte layer which is arranged between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer and contains a solid electrolyte, wherein the all-solid-state battery includes a power storage unit in which the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer face each other with the solid electrolyte layer therebetween and an exterior unit, and wherein the exterior unit has an ion conductivity of 10 −2 S/cm or less.

Claims (13)

1. An all-solid-state battery, comprising:

a positive electrode layer including a positive electrode current collector layer and a positive electrode active material layer provided on the positive electrode current collector layer;

a negative electrode layer including a negative electrode current collector layer and a negative electrode active material layer provided on the negative electrode current collector layer; and

a solid electrolyte layer which is arranged between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer and contains a solid electrolyte,

wherein the all-solid-state battery includes a power storage unit in which the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer face each other with the solid electrolyte layer therebetween and an exterior unit,

the exterior unit has an ion conductivity of 10 −2 S/cm or less,

the exterior unit has a porosity P of 0.4 or less,

a self-discharge rate of the all-solid-state battery is 6.5% or less,

a ratio Y of an ion conductivity of the exterior unit to an ion conductivity of the solid electrolyte layer (ion conductivity of exterior unit)/(ion conductivity of solid electrolyte layer) is 10 −6 ≤Y≤1, and

the exterior unit consists of a binder and either one or both of LiZr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 monoclinic crystal and LiZr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 rhombohedral crystal.

2. The all-solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein the exterior unit is arranged so that it covers parts of the power storage unit that are not connected to a terminal electrode.

3. The all-solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein the exterior unit has an electron conductivity of 10 −9 S/cm or less.

4. The all-solid-state battery according to claim 1 , wherein the exterior unit has a porosity P of from 0.08 to 0.4.
