Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of solid-state battery manufacturing, and in particular relates to a curved solid-state lithium-ion battery and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] The manufacture of traditional lithium-ion batteries is based on the slurry coating process, which can mass-produce cylindrical or square batteries with fixed shapes. With the development of the Internet of Things and wearable electronic devices, the application scenarios of energy storage batteries have been further expanded, and the demand for curved batteries has increased. For example, if the battery is embedded in the casing of a smartphone, the space occupied by the battery can be greatly reduced, making the phone thinner and lighter. For another example, the battery can be combined with the frame of smart glasses, which serves as a structural component and can also provide energy for the operation of the smart glasses. The above requirements all require that the battery shape is not limited to the current cylindrical or square shape, but can fit perfectly with the actual object, that is, a curved battery. However, the current traditional slurry coating process cannot realize the manufacture of curved batteries.

[0004] In addition, battery safety is also a key point to consider. The organic liquid electrolytes used in traditional lithium-ion batteries have potential safety issues, such as flammability, poor thermal stability, and liquid leakage. In order to solve the inherent safety defects of traditional batteries and further improve the energy density and service life of batteries, using solid electrolytes to replace traditional organic liquid electrolytes, namely solid-state lithium-ion batteries, is an effective solution. Solid electrolytes have many advantages over traditional organic liquid electrolytes: (i) they are non-flammable, high-temperature stable, and non-volatile, eliminating the potential risk of combustion or explosion of organic liquid electrolytes; (ii) wide electrochemical window, which can be better compatible with high-voltage positive electrode materials, thereby greatly improving energy density; (iii) when using metallic lithium as the negative electrode, the high mechanical stiffness and adjustable elastic modulus of the solid electrolyte can inhibit the dendrite growth of the metallic lithium negative electrode.

[0005] In summary, based on the needs of the future Internet of Things and wearable electronic devices, it is extremely urgent to develop curved solid-state lithium-ion batteries, which requires innovation in battery manufacturing processes. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a strategic new technology for manufacturing complex three-dimensional objects from the bottom up. This technology can customize the printing of micro-nano structures of different dimensions and shapes according to needs and application scenarios, thereby effectively solving the manufacturing problems of the above-mentioned curved solid-state batteries.
