  • the all-solid-state battery according to this embodiment has excellent cycle characteristics. Although the reason for this is not clear, it is considered that the oxide 13 having a composition different from that of the Li transition metal oxide functions as a film that prevents oxidation of Ag during charging and discharging. Ag contained in the positive electrode is oxidized at a potential of 3.84 V or higher. The use of energy for the Ag oxidation reaction means that the energy is consumed for reactions other than the charge/discharge reaction of the all-solid-state battery, resulting in poor energy efficiency. Oxidation of Ag can be suppressed by previously forming an oxide 13 having a composition different from that of the Li transition metal oxide between the positive electrode current collector 11 and the positive electrode active material 12 . As a result, it is considered that the cycle characteristics of the all-solid-state battery are improved.

At this time, each unit was staggered and stacked so that the odd-numbered electrode units extended only to one end face and the even-numbered electrode units extended only to the opposite end face.
  • Six solid electrolyte layer sheets were stacked on top of this stacked unit. After that, this was molded by thermocompression bonding and then cut to produce a laminated chip.
