💡Development of Safer, More Reliable Compact All-Solid-State Lithium Secondary Batteries
– Realization of the world’s highest lithium-ion-conductivity of oxide-type electrolyte by using single-crystal solid electrolyte –
(Summary of AIST press release on February 1, 2017)
Researchers: Kunimitsu Kataoka, Senior Researcher, Junji Akimoto, Leader, and Jun Akedo, Director, the Advanced Coating Technology Research Center
Point
The researchers have grown a single crystal of oxide-type solid electrolyte with the highest lithium ion conductivity.
In addition, they used the AD method, a room-temperature film forming technology developed by AIST, to form a strongly adhered electrode-electrolyte interface and have developed a compact all-solid-state lithium secondary battery.
