Application: All-solid-state battery (Patent ID: US20240105947A1)
The patent filed by Toyota Motor Corp. pertains to an all-solid-state battery design that includes an electrode layer with an active material and a sulfide solid electrolyte. The key aspect of the invention is that the sulfide solid electrolyte must meet specific abundance ratio criteria represented by formulas (1) to (4), ensuring optimal performance and stability of the battery. These criteria involve the abundance ratios of skeleton structure units within the electrolyte, specifically PS43-, P2Sx, and POx units, with the relationship C1/(C1+C2+C3) being greater than 0.5.
Furthermore, the patent includes additional claims specifying the relationships that the sulfide solid electrolyte must satisfy in different configurations of the all-solid-state battery, such as in a positive electrode layer. These relationships, outlined in formulas (1) to (4), ensure that the abundance ratios of skeleton structure units are within defined ranges to enhance the overall efficiency and reliability of the battery. By adhering to these criteria, the all-solid-state battery design proposed by Toyota aims to improve performance and safety in energy storage applications.
