Abstract

An all-solid-state secondary battery includes: a positive electrode active material layer; a negative electrode active material layer; and a solid electrolyte layer located between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer, wherein at least one of the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer contains lithium vanadium phosphate, the solid electrolyte layer contains lithium zirconium phosphate, and between the positive electrode active material layer or the negative electrode active material layer containing lithium vanadium phosphate and the solid electrolyte layer, a first intermediate layer, which contains lithium vanadium phosphate containing zirconium and is located on the side of the positive electrode active material layer or the negative electrode active material layer, and a second intermediate layer, which contains lithium zirconium phosphate containing vanadium and is located on the side of the solid electrolyte layer, are provided.

Claims (43)

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

a positive electrode active material layer;

a negative electrode active material layer; and

a solid electrolyte layer located between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer,
