Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a sulfide solid electrolyte glass producing a tiny amount of hydrogen sulfide. The present invention attains the above-mentioned object by providing a sulfide solid electrolyte glass including Li 3 PS 4 , characterized in that Li 4 P 2 S 7 is not detected by 31 P NMR measurement and the content of Li 2 S as determined by XPS measurement is 3% by mol or less.

Claims (12)

1. A sulfide solid electrolyte glass comprising Li 3 PS 4 , wherein Li 4 P 2 S 7 is not detected by 31 P NMR measurement and a content of Li 2 S as determined by XPS measurement is 3% by mol or less.

2. The sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 1 , wherein the content of Li 2 S as determined by XPS measurement is 1% by mol or less.

3. A method for producing a sulfide solid electrolyte glass comprising Li 3 PS 4 , comprising:

preparing a raw material composition containing Li 2 S and P 2 S 5 ; and

amorphizing the raw material composition by an amorphization treatment,

wherein the raw material composition contains Li 2 S and P 2 S 5 at a ratio so that the method produces the sulfide solid electrolyte glass, in which Li 4 P 2 S 7 is not detected by 31 P NMR measurement and a content of Li 2 S as determined by XPS measurement is 3% by mol or less.

4. The method for producing a sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 3 , wherein the content of Li 2 S as determined by XPS measurement is 1% by mol or less.

5. The method for producing a sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 3 , wherein the amorphization treatment is mechanical milling.

6. A lithium solid state battery comprising a cathode active material layer containing a cathode active material, an anode active material layer containing an anode active material, and a solid electrolyte layer formed between the cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer;

wherein at least one of the cathode active material layer, the anode active material layer and the solid electrolyte layer contains the sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 1 .

7. The sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 1 , wherein the sulfide solid electrolyte glass is produced from a raw material composition containing Li 2 S and P 2 S 5 at a molar ratio of xLi 2 S.(100-x) P 2 S 5 where x satisfies 73<x<75.

8. The sulfide solid electrolyte glass according to claim 1 , wherein the sulfide solid electrolyte glass has a hydrogen sulfide concentration in the range of 10 ppm or less.
