[0003] Electronic devices that are carried by users or worn by users have been actively developed.
[0004] Electronic devices carried by users or worn by users are examples of primary energy storage devices. It operates using batteries or secondary batteries as its power source. Electronic devices carried by users are designed to be used for long periods of time. It is desirable to use a large-capacity secondary battery for this purpose. If a battery is built in, the problem is that a large-capacity secondary battery is large and heavy. Progress is being made in developing small or thin, large-capacity secondary batteries that can be built into electronic devices.

[0010] In solid-state batteries, the interface between the inorganic solid electrolyte and the electrodes is in surface contact, so electrical resistance is high. It is difficult to obtain stable battery characteristics. One of the challenges is to reduce resistance.
[0011] In addition, the inorganic solid electrolytes in solid-state batteries are broadly classified into sulfide-based materials and oxide-based materials. Oxide-based materials, when containing titanium or germanium in their composition, have a high thermal conductivity compared to lithium metal. The low chemical stability of the inorganic solids in solid-state batteries leads to the reduction of titanium and germanium. A method for producing a solid-state battery with good productivity is provided by using an oxide-based material for the electrolyte.
[0012] Also provided is a configuration that increases the discharge capacity of an all-solid-state battery and improves the battery efficiency. [Means for solving the problem]
[0013] One problem with oxide-based solid-state batteries is that the electrolyte layer does not form sufficient paths between electrolyte particles. Its low ionic conductivity reduces charge / discharge capacity and makes high-rate charging difficult. Ionic conductivity can be improved by supplementing the path with sheet-like compounds.
[0014] In addition, an insulating electrolyte is mixed in to form an ion conduction path in the negative and positive electrode layers. Therefore, the electrical conductivity of the electrode is reduced. The improvement can be achieved by improving the conductivity of the electrolyte surface or by creating an electronic conduction path between active material particles. do.

A graphene compound is used to improve the bonding strength between the solid electrolyte and the surface of the material. By using this, the contact area is increased and the interface resistance between the current collector and the solid electrolyte is reduced, and therefore, It is possible to improve the battery efficiency and charge / discharge rate.
[0016] The solid electrolyte may be any electrolyte that can conduct lithium ions and contains a solid component. There is no particular limitation. For example, ceramics, polymer electrolytes, etc. can be mentioned. The electrolytes are broadly divided into polymer gel electrolytes, which contain an electrolyte solution, and polymer solid electrolytes, which do not contain an electrolyte solution. It can be done.
[0017] The configuration disclosed in this specification includes a positive electrode current collector, a negative electrode current collector, and a positive electrode current collector and a negative electrode current collector. The all-solid-state secondary battery has a solid electrolyte in contact with the graphene compound between them.
[0018] In the above-mentioned configuration, the graphene compound is reduced graphene oxide, and the reduced oxide The graphene oxide is characterized in that it covers at least a portion of the surface of the solid electrolyte.
[0019] In addition, a positive electrode current collector, a negative electrode current collector, and a solid electrolyte layer between the positive electrode current collector and the negative electrode current collector are provided. the solid electrolyte layer includes a graphene compound covering at least a portion of a surface of the solid electrolyte; The graphene compound has graphene oxide, and silicon is bonded to oxygen of the graphene oxide. At least a part of the surface of the graphene compound is preferably a silicon atom. The chemically modified compound is sometimes called surface-modified graphene. The present invention relates to a method for chemically modifying a graphene compound to change the function or properties of the graphene compound. In addition, it can also mean adding a functional group that has a specific function or property. The graphene oxide with functional groups can improve the volume resistivity and The electrical conductivity can be increased.
[0020] In the above configuration, a negative electrode active material layer is provided between the solid electrolyte layer and the negative electrode current collector. In this case, the negative electrode active material layer may contain reduced graphene oxide. The restored graphene oxide can increase the contact area between the solid electrolyte and the negative electrode active material. This can reduce the interface resistance.
[0021] In the above configuration, a positive electrode active material layer is provided between the solid electrolyte layer and the positive electrode current collector. In this case, the positive electrode active material layer may contain reduced graphene oxide. The restored graphene oxide can increase the contact area between the solid electrolyte and the positive electrode active material. This can reduce the interface resistance.
[0022] In each of the above configurations, a conductive assistant or A binder may be included. The conductive additive is acetylene black, ketjen black ( Carbon materials such as VGCF, graphite, etc. can be used. As the binder, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) or the like can be used.

When a cross-section is observed, the interface between the positive electrode active material layer and the solid electrolyte layer may not be clear. The interface between the solid electrolyte layer and the negative electrode active material layer may not be clear. When the cathode is subjected to the discharging process, a mixed layer may be formed at the interface between the cathode active material layer and the solid electrolyte layer. do.
[0024] The solid electrolyte material of the positive electrode active material layer and the solid electrolyte material of the negative electrode active material layer may be the same, They may be different, but from the viewpoint of reducing material costs, they are preferably the same. If the electrolyte material is a solid electrolyte, smooth ion conduction is possible even if a mixed layer is formed at the interface. Effect of the Invention
