[0087] In the example of the method for driving the power storage system shown in FIG. 1A, in step S1, The device 200 transmits a confirmation signal to the device 100. For example, the confirmation signal is transmitted approximately once every few seconds. It is preferable to do so.
[0088] Next, in step S2, the device 100 receives a confirmation signal.
[0089] At this time, the confirmation signal is extracted by the circuit 119 included in the circuit 142, and the confirmation signal is returned. The signal is output to path 113.
[0090] Next, in step S3, the device 100 generates a response signal corresponding to the received confirmation signal. and transmits it to the device 200.
[0091] At this time, the circuit 113 retrieves the necessary program data from the memory based on the data of the confirmation signal. The response signal includes a message indicating that the device 100 is Identifying data 110 is also included.
[0092] As a response method by signals between the device 100 and the device 200, for example, ISO15693 A method conforming to standards such as ISO14443 can be used. Use a method that complies with standards such as IEEE 802.11a / b / g / n (Ear Field Communication) NFC standards include NFCIP-1 (ISO18092). can be done.
[0093] The response signal may be used to detect the location of the device 100. For example, the circuit 211 may be used to The position of the device 100 can be detected by calculating the distance of the device 100 from the response signal. .
[0094] Furthermore, a radio wave containing the response signal generated by the circuit 142 is transmitted to the device 200 .
[0095] Next, in step S4, the device 200 receives the response signal. Identify the data 110.
[0096] For example, the circuit 230 extracts a response signal from the received radio wave and transmits the extracted response signal to the circuit 2 Output to 11.
[0097] The circuit 211 identifies the device 100 from the data 110 contained in the input response signal. For example, data for identifying the device 100 is stored in advance in a memory, and the data and 110. Furthermore, in step S5, the stored It is determined whether or not charging of the electric device 111 is necessary and possible.
[0098] If it is determined that charging is unnecessary or impossible, the operation of the circuit 231 is stopped. For example, Stopping the supply of power supply voltage to circuit 231 using the controller of circuit 211 This allows the operation of the circuit 231 to be stopped.
[0099] If it is determined that charging is necessary and possible, in step S6, the device 200 transfers the charge to the device 10. Start transmitting power to 0.
[0100] Even if it is determined that charging is necessary, the charge stored in the power storage unit 111 is zero. Instead, the charge required for the operation of the device 100, such as the power for operating the circuit 113, is stored in the capacitor. Preferably, the ion exchange reaction is stored in 111.
[0101] At this time, the circuit 231 is started to operate, and an alternating current is transmitted to the device 100, thereby Provides power to 00.
[0102] Depending on the data identifying the device 100, for example, the frequency or amplitude of the AC to be transmitted may be changed. By changing the amount of power supplied to the device 100, the amount of power supplied to the device 100 can be optimized. The power supply time can be adjusted according to the capacity of the power storage unit 111. 211, by controlling the conversion efficiency of the amplified AC, the frequency of the AC to be transmitted Alternatively, the amplitude or the like can be changed.
[0103] Next, in step S7, the device 100 starts receiving power, and charging of the power storage unit 111 starts. For example, the device 100 may be an electromagnetic induction type, an electric field resonance type, a magnetic field resonance type, or a micro Power can be received using a method such as a wave method.
[0104] The power supplied by the device 200 is regulated by the circuit 141. Furthermore, the circuit 113 By turning on the transistor 131, the transistor 132, and the transistor 150, This causes the power storage unit 111 to be charged.
[0105] Next, in step S8, the voltage Vbt of the power storage unit 111 is increased by charging to a voltage equal to or higher than the reference voltage Vref. For example, the circuit 113 determines whether the voltage Vbt is equal to or higher than the reference voltage Vref. can be compared.
[0106] If it is determined that the voltage Vbt is less than the reference voltage Vref, the power storage unit 111 continues to be charged. do.
[0107] On the other hand, if it is determined that the voltage Vbt is equal to or higher than the reference voltage Vref, the circuit 113 In step S9, the resistor 150 is turned off, and a voltage including a stop signal is supplied via the circuit 142. The wave is transmitted to the device 200. Note that if it is determined that the voltage Vbt is equal to or greater than the reference voltage Vref, Alternatively, the transistors 131 and 132 may be turned off. Overcharging of the electric body 111 can be prevented.
[0108] Note that even if the voltage Vbt is less than the reference voltage Vref, for example, the user may force the device 00 to terminate charging of the power storage unit 111. In this case, for example, 35 detects the position of the device 100, and the value of the position data of the device 100 exceeds the threshold value. In this case, the circuit 211 may stop the operation of the circuit 231. The device 200 transmits a confirmation signal to the device 100, and if there is no response signal from the device 100, the circuit 211 may cause the circuit 231 to stop operating.
[0109] Next, in step S10, when the device 200 receives a radio wave having a stop signal, the circuit 21 3 extracts the stop signal, and the circuit 213 outputs the extracted stop signal to the circuit 211.
[0110] When a stop signal is input, the circuit 211 stops the operation of the circuit 231. For example, the circuit 2 By using the controller 11 to stop the supply of power supply voltage to the circuit 231, In this way, the operation of the circuit 231 can be stopped during the period when the operation is not required. By stopping the power supply, power consumption can be reduced.
[0111] Then, transistors 131, 132, and 17 are turned on as needed. By turning ON the power supply voltage V1, the power supply voltage V2 can be output through terminals a and d. Power can be supplied to the load from the power supply 111. Alternatively, the transistor 131 and the transistor 13 2, and transistor 170 is turned on, so that current flows through terminals b and d. The power supply voltage V2 can be output, and power can be supplied from the power storage unit 111 to the load.
[0112] This concludes the description of the example of the method for driving the power storage system.
[0113] As described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, in the example of the power storage system according to the present embodiment, By identifying the device 100 by the device 200 using the different data, the maximum number of devices per device 100 can be Since charging can be performed under optimal conditions, charging can be performed regardless of the specifications of the device 100, for example. In the conventional power storage device, the specifications are set individually for each mobile terminal, for example. In such cases, it was necessary to prepare a different power supply device. If the connectors are different, other power supply devices cannot be used. When a user has multiple mobile terminals, the user needs multiple power supply devices, which is inconvenient. In this embodiment, for example, it is not necessary to change the device 200 depending on the specifications of the device 100. This allows for greater versatility.
[0114] Although an example in which the device 100 is identified by the device 200 using the identification data has been described, One aspect of the embodiment of the present invention is that it is not limited to this. In some cases, identification data may not be used. Therefore, the device 100 does not have to be identified by the device 200 .

The circuit shown is an example, and a necessary circuit may be provided depending on the electrical equipment in which the circuit 113 is used. can.
[0133] The timer circuit 745 receives the clock signal TCLK( Hereafter, it is also referred to simply as "TCLK.") It has the function of measuring time. The clock generation circuit 715 generates an interrupt signal T0IRQ at predetermined time intervals. The timer circuit 745 outputs the I / O Connected to the bus line 761 and the data bus line 764 via the interface 746 It has been done.
[0134] TCLK is a clock signal with a lower frequency than MCLK. For example, the frequency of MCLK is is set to several MHz (e.g., 8 MHz), and TCLK is set to several tens of kHz (e.g., 32 kHz). The clock generation circuit 740 is a crystal oscillation circuit 74 The oscillator 742 is connected to a connection terminal 772 and a connection terminal 773.

For example, I / O port 750 is connected to circuit 119 via connection terminal 774, and 74 and the transistor 131 through the connection terminal 774. 2, and connected to transistor 150 via connection terminal 774, and and connected to the power storage unit 111 via a connection terminal 774.

Furthermore, when the value of this digital signal is 1, the comparator 751 generates a division The interrupt signal COIRQ can be generated by the interrupt controller 7. 21. Furthermore, the comparator 751 receives an input via a connection terminal 774, for example. A signal indicating the voltage Vbt of the power storage unit 111 being input is compared with a signal indicating the reference voltage Vref. It can also be done.

The unit 704 includes a processor 710, a memory 712, a bus bridge 711, and a memory interface 713.
[0142] The power gate unit 730 is controlled by the controller 720. The unit 730 is a switch for cutting off the supply of power supply voltage to the units 701 to 704. The power supply voltage at this time is, for example, A voltage of 1 or the like can be used.

The clock generation circuit 715 and the crystal oscillation circuit 741 are kept inactive. To activate the clock, an enable signal is input from the controller 720 or externally. This is done by stopping the oscillation of the clock generation circuit 715 and the crystal oscillation circuit 741.
[0151] In addition, in the Noff1 and Noff2 modes, power is supplied by the power gate unit 730. Therefore, the I / O port 750 and I / O interface 752 are inactive. e, but in order for the external device connected to the connection terminal 774 to operate normally, Power is supplied to the O port 750 and part of the I / O interface 752. is the output buffer of the I / O port 750, and is a register 783 for the I / O port 750.

The other end of the capacitor 632 is connected to a power supply potential VSS. The off-state current of the transistor 631 is very low. Since the voltage is so low that the charge in the capacitor 632 is held and data is retained even when the supply of power supply voltage is stopped, It will be held.

At this time, the selector 653 selects the data signal The data D is output to the memory circuit 651. The memory circuit 651 receives the data D in accordance with the clock signal CLK. At this time, the data of the data signal D inputted is held by the read control signal RD. Transistor 633 is turned on and transistor 634 is turned off.

The data is stored and transistor 631 is turned off. The supply of the clock signal CLK is stopped, and then the reset signal RST is sent to the register. When the transistor 631 is in an on state, the supply of the A positive power supply potential may be supplied to the back gate. Transistor 633 is turned on and transistor 634 is turned off.
[0175] Next, during the power supply stop period, the supply of power supply voltage to the register is stopped. Since the off-state current of the transistor 631 in the memory circuit 652 is low, the stored data is retained. By supplying the ground potential GND instead of the power supply potential VDD, For example, the ground potential can be considered to be the voltage supply cutoff at the terminal When the transistor 631 is in the off state, the voltage Vcc is supplied via the transistor 63 A negative power supply potential may be supplied to the back gate of transistor 631 to keep the transistor 631 in an off state. stomach.
[0176] Next, during the recovery period just before returning to normal operation, Then, the supply of the clock signal CLK is resumed, and then the supply of the reset signal CLK is resumed. At this time, the supply of the clock signal RST is resumed. The supply of the clock signal CLK is then resumed. The transistor 633 is turned off in response to the pulse of the control signal RD, and the transistor 63 4 is turned on, and the data signal of the value stored in the memory circuit 652 is output to the selector 653. The selector 653 selects the data signal in accordance with the pulse of the read control signal RD. This outputs the signal to the memory circuit 651. This restores the memory circuit 651 to the state immediately before the power supply stop period. It can be restored.
[0177] After that, during the normal operation period, the memory circuit 651 performs normal operation again.
[0178] The above is an example of the method for driving the register shown in FIG.
[0179] The register is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG.
[0180] For example, the register shown in FIG. 7(B) has a larger number of transactions than the register configuration shown in FIG. 7(A). There are no transistors 633, 634, inverters 636, or capacitors 637. The registers shown in FIG. 7A are the same as those shown in FIG. The description of the registers shown in (A) will be used as appropriate.
[0181] At this time, one of the source and drain of the transistor 635 is connected to the input terminal of the selector 653. connected to the child.
[0182] Also, the selector 654 selects the power supply potential VS S or the data signal output from the memory circuit 651 is selected and input to the memory circuit 652. .
[0183] Next, an example of a method for driving the register shown in FIG. 7(B) will be described.
[0184] First, during the normal operation period, the power supply voltage, the reset signal RST, and the clock signal CLK are At this time, the selector 653 selects the data of the data signal D. The memory circuit 651 outputs the input signal in accordance with the clock signal CLK. The data of the data signal D is held. Also, the selector 65 is turned on in response to the write control signal WE2. 4 outputs the power supply potential VSS to the memory circuit 652. In the memory circuit 652, In response to the pulse of the signal WE, the transistor 631 is turned on, and the power supply voltage is supplied to the memory circuit 652. The position VSS is stored as data.
[0185] Next, during the backup period immediately before the power supply voltage is stopped, the write control signal WE2 is set to Therefore, the selector 654 selects the output terminal of the memory circuit 651 instead of supplying the power supply potential VSS. When this signal is input, one of the source and drain of the transistor 631 is turned on. In response to the pulse of the control signal WE, the transistor 631 is turned on, and the data is stored in the memory circuit 652. The data of the data signal D is stored, and the transistor 631 is turned off. The data in the memory circuit 652 is rewritten only when the potential of the data signal D is the same as the power supply potential VDD. Furthermore, the supply of the clock signal CLK to the register is stopped, and the When the transistor 631 is in the ON state, the supply of the reset signal RST is stopped. A positive power supply potential may be supplied to the back gate of the transistor 631 .
[0186] Next, during the power supply stop period, the supply of power supply voltage to the register is stopped. In the memory circuit 652, the off-state current of the transistor 631 is low, so that the data value is maintained. By supplying the ground potential GND instead of the power supply potential VDD, It can also be considered as stopping the supply of voltage. When the transistor 631 is in the off state, the negative power supply potential is supplied to the back gate of the transistor 631. The transistor may be kept in an off state by using a voltage regulator.
[0187] Next, during the recovery period just before returning to normal operation, Then, the supply of the clock signal CLK is resumed, and then the supply of the reset signal The supply of RST is resumed. At this time, the wiring through which the clock signal CLK is supplied is set to the power supply potential. VDD, and then the supply of the clock signal CLK is resumed. In response to the pulse of the read control signal RD, a value corresponding to the data stored in the memory circuit 652 is read. The data signal is output to the memory circuit 651. This stores the state immediately before the power supply stop period. The circuit 651 can be restored.
[0188] After that, during the normal operation period, the memory circuit 651 performs normal operation again.
[0189] The above is an example of a method for driving the register shown in FIG.
[0190] By using the configuration shown in FIG. 7B, the power supply potential VSS during the backup period This eliminates the need to write data, making operations faster.
[0191] When the above registers are used for registers 784 to 787, the Nof When switching to the f1 and Noff2 modes, registers 784 to 788 are set before power is turned off. The data in the memory circuit 651 of FIG. 7 is written to the memory circuit 652, and the data in the memory circuit 651 is written to the memory circuit 652. It will be reset to the initial value and the power will be cut off.
[0192] Also, when returning from Noff1 or Noff2 mode to Active, register 7 When power supply to 84 to 787 is resumed, the data in the memory circuit 651 is first reset to the initial value. Then, the data in the storage circuit 652 is written to the storage circuit 651.
[0193] Therefore, even in the low power consumption mode, the data required for processing by the circuit 113 is stored in the registers 784 to 786. Since it is held by 787, circuit 113 is switched from low power consumption mode to active mode. This allows the device 100 to be restored immediately, thereby reducing the power consumption of the device 100. can.

By covering the surface of the active material with the oxide film, the solid electrolyte interface (Solid Electrolyte It can suppress the formation of a membrane (also called ectrolyte interphase), and The occurrence of this can be suppressed.
[0266] In this embodiment, a conductive additive and a binder are added to the above material, and the material is mixed and fired. The produced negative electrode active material layer 962 is used.
[0267] The negative electrode active material layer 962 will be described with reference to FIG. The negative electrode active material layer 962 is a cross section of a part of the negative electrode active material layer 962. 4 and a binder (not shown).
[0268] The conductive additive 974 is applied between the granular negative electrode active material 973 or between the granular negative electrode active material 973 and the negative electrode current collector 9 For example, the negative electrode active material layer 962 has a function of improving the conductivity with the conductive additive 97. It is preferable to add 4. As the conductive additive 974, a material with a large specific surface area is preferable. Acetylene black (AB) can be used. Carbon nanotubes and graphite Carbon materials such as phene and fullerene may be used as the conductive additive 974. An example using graphene will be described later.

[0271] Next, the slurry is applied to one or both surfaces of the negative electrode current collector 961 and dried. When the process is performed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 961, the negative electrode active material layer is formed on both sides simultaneously or one side at a time. Then, the negative electrode 931 is manufactured by rolling using a roll press. do.
[0272] Next, an example in which graphene is used as a conductive additive added to the negative electrode active material layer 962 will be described with reference to FIG. 15(C) and 15(D).
[0273] In this specification, graphene refers to a single-layer graphene or a graphene having 2 to 100 layers. It includes multi-layer graphene. Single-layer graphene is a single atomic layer of carbon with π bonds. Graphene oxide is a compound obtained by oxidizing the above-mentioned graphene. When graphene is formed by reducing graphene oxide, Not all of the oxygen contained in graphene is released, and some of the oxygen remains in the graphene. If oxygen is present in the phene, the oxygen content can be determined by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The graphene is 2 atoms thick when measured by ion spectroscopy. c% to 20 atomic %; preferably 3 atomic % to 15 atomic % The following is the result.
[0274] FIG. 15C is a plan view of a part of the negative electrode active material layer 962 using graphene. The negative electrode active material layer 962 is made of a granular negative electrode active material 973 and a plurality of granular negative electrode active material 973 coated thereon. At the same time, it is composed of graphene 975 packed inside granular negative electrode active material 973. A binder not shown may be added, but it is necessary to add a binder to bond the graphene 975 to each other. If the content is such that it functions as a binder when adhered to the substrate, it is not necessarily a binder. The negative electrode active material layer 962 in plan view is made of a plurality of negative electrode active materials 973. The surface is covered with different graphene 975. Note that in a part, the granular negative electrode active material 9 73 may be exposed.
[0275] FIG. 15D is a cross-sectional view of a part of the negative electrode active material layer 962 in FIG. and the negative electrode active material layer 962, In the cross-sectional view, the graphene 975 is The same graphene or multiple graphenes are observed as multiple particles of the negative electrode active material 9. 73, or by the same graphene or by multiple graphenes, multiple granular negative The graphene 975 has a bag-like shape, and the inside of the bag-like shape contains an electrode active material 973. In some cases, the graphene 975 contains a plurality of particles of the negative electrode active material. In some cases, the negative electrode active material particles 973 are exposed in the exposed areas.
[0276] The thickness of the negative electrode active material layer 962 is set to a desired value between 20 μm and 150 μm. It is preferable to select a thickness.
[0277] The negative electrode active material layer 962 may be pre-doped with lithium. As a method, a lithium layer may be formed on the surface of the negative electrode active material layer 962 by a sputtering method. Alternatively, by providing a lithium foil on the surface of the negative electrode active material layer 962, 2 can be pre-doped with lithium.
[0278] In addition, the volume of the granular negative electrode active material 973 expands due to the occlusion of carrier ions. As a result, the negative electrode active material layer becomes brittle during charging and discharging, and part of the negative electrode active material layer is broken off. This collapse reduces the reliability of the electricity storage device, such as the cycle characteristics.
[0279] However, even if the volume of the negative electrode active material increases or decreases due to charging and discharging, the volume of the granular negative electrode active material 973 When the surrounding area is covered with graphene 975, graphene 975 can improve the dispersion and activity of the negative electrode active material. It is possible to prevent the material layer from collapsing. In other words, graphene 975 Even if the volume of the negative electrode active material increases or decreases, the negative electrode active material has the function of maintaining the bond between the negative electrode active materials. Therefore, there is no need to use a binder when forming the negative electrode active material layer 962, and the negative electrode active material layer 962 can be formed by a constant weight (constant volume). In the negative electrode active material layer 962 (a layer of negative electrode active material), the amount of the negative electrode active material can be increased. This makes it possible to increase the charge / discharge capacity per electrode weight (electrode volume).
[0280] The graphene 975 has conductivity and is in contact with the plurality of particles of the negative electrode active material 973. That is, when the negative electrode active material layer 962 is formed, the conductive additive also functions as a conductive additive. There is no need to use an electrolytic auxiliary agent, and in the negative electrode active material layer 962 of a certain weight (certain volume), It is possible to increase the amount of active material. Therefore, the charge / discharge per electrode weight (electrode volume) The capacity can be increased.
[0281] In addition, the graphene 975 provides an efficient and sufficient electron conduction path to the negative electrode active material layer 962. Therefore, the conductivity of the negative electrode 931 can be improved.
[0282] Graphene 975 also functions as a negative electrode active material capable of absorbing and releasing carrier ions. Therefore, the charge capacity of the negative electrode 931 can be improved.
[0283] Note that the graphene may be used as a positive electrode active material.
[0284] Next, a method for forming the negative electrode active material layer 962 shown in FIGS. 15C and 15D will be described. do.
[0285] First, an electrode material and a dispersion liquid containing graphene oxide are mixed and kneaded to form a slurry.
[0286] Next, the above slurry is applied onto the negative electrode current collector 961. Next, vacuum drying is performed for a certain period of time. The solvent is removed from the slurry applied to the negative electrode current collector 961 by the roll press. The material is rolled using a machine.
[0287] After that, we investigated the electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide using electrical energy and the thermal treatment. Thermal reduction of graphene oxide to produce graphene 975. In particular, electrochemical When a reduction treatment is performed, the graphene formed by the heat treatment has a higher π bond. The increased proportion of carbon atoms allows for the formation of highly conductive graphene 975. Through the above steps, a negative electrode current collector 961 is formed on one or both surfaces thereof using graphene as a conductive additive. Thus, a negative electrode active material layer 962 can be formed, and a negative electrode 931 can be manufactured.
[0288] Next, the positive electrode 932 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0289] 16A is a cross-sectional view of the positive electrode 932. The positive electrode 932 is formed by forming a positive electrode active layer on a positive electrode current collector 981. A layer of material 982 is formed.
[0290] The positive electrode current collector 981 can be made of stainless steel, gold, platinum, zinc, iron, copper, aluminum, titanium, etc. Highly conductive materials such as metals and alloys thereof can be used. Elements that improve heat resistance, such as silicon, titanium, neodymium, scandium, and molybdenum, are added. Aluminum alloys that react with silicon to form silicide can also be used. The metal element may be a metal element that reacts with silicon to form silicide. These include zirconium, titanium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, and chromium. , molybdenum, tungsten, cobalt, nickel, etc. The positive electrode current collector 981 is a foil , plate (sheet), mesh, punched metal, expanded metal, etc. It can be used.
[0291] The positive electrode active material layer 982 contains a conductive additive and a binder (binding agent) in addition to the positive electrode active material. Good too.
[0292] The positive electrode active material of the positive electrode active material layer 982 is LiFeO2, LiCoO2, LiNiO2 , LiMn2O4, V2O5, Cr2O5, MnO2, and other compounds are used as materials. can be done.
[0293] Or, lithium-containing complex phosphate (general formula LiMPO4 (M is Fe(II), Mn(I) One or more of Li(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) can be used. Representative examples of O4 include LiFePO4, LiNiPO4, LiCoPO4, and LiMnP O4, LiFe a Ni b PO4, LiFe a Co b PO4, LiFe a Mn b PO4, L iNi a Co b PO4, LiNi aMn b PO4 (where a + b ≤ 1, 0 < a < 1, 0 < b <1), LiFe c Ni d Co e PO4, LiFe c Ni d Mn e PO4, LiNi c C o d Mn e PO4 (where c + d + e ≤ 1, 0 < c < 1, 0 < d < 1, 0 < e < 1), Li Fe f Ni g Co h Mn i PO4 (where f + g + h + i ≤ 1, 0 < f < 1, 0 < g < 1, 0 < h < 1, 0 < i < 1), etc., lithium compounds can be used as the active material
[0294] Or, a lithium-containing composite silicate such as the general formula Li (2-j) MSiO4 (M is one or more of Fe(II), Mn(II), Co(I I), Ni(II), 0 ≤ j ≤ 2), etc., can be used The representative examples of the general formula Li (2-j) MSiO4 include Li (2-j) FeSi O4, Li (2-j) NiSiO4, Li (2-j) CoSiO4, Li (2-j) Mn SiO4, Li (2-j) Fe k Ni l SiO4, Li (2-j) Fe k Co l SiO4 、Li (2-j) Fe k Mn l SiO4, Li (2-j) Ni k Co l SiO4, Li ( 2-j) Ni k Mn lSiO4 (where k + l is 1 or less, 0 < k < 1, 0 < l < 1), Li (2 -j) Fe m Ni n Co q SiO4, Li (2-j) Fe m Ni n Mn q SiO4, Li (2-j) Ni m Co n Mn q SiO4 (where m + n + q is 1 or less, 0 < m < 1, 0 < n < 1 , 0 < q < 1), Li (2-j) Fe r Ni s Co t Mn u SiO4 (where r + s + t + u is 1 or less, 0 < r < 1, 0 < s < 1, 0 < t < 1, 0 < u < 1), etc. can be used as materials .
[0295] In addition, when the carrier ion is an alkali metal ion other than lithium ion or an alkaline earth metal ion, in the above lithium compound, lithium-containing composite phosphate, and lithium-containing composite silicate, an alkali metal ( for example, sodium, potassium, etc.) or an alkaline earth metal (for example, calcium, strontium thium, barium, beryllium, magnesium, etc.) may be used instead of lithium.
[0296] Also, the positive electrode active material layer 982 is not limited to being formed directly on the positive electrode current collector 981. Between the positive electrode current collector 981 and the positive electrode active material layer 982, an adhesion layer for the purpose of improving the adhesion between the positive electrode current collector 981 and the positive electrode active material layer 98 2, a flattening layer for relaxing the uneven shape of the surface of the positive electrode current collector 981, a heat dissipation layer for heat dissipation, or the positive electrode current collector 981 or the positive electrode active material layer 982 response A functional layer such as a stress relief layer for relieving stress may be formed using a conductive material such as metal. stomach.
[0297] 16(B) is a plan view of the positive electrode active material layer 982. The positive electrode active material 983 is a particulate material capable of absorbing and releasing positive ions. Graphene 9 covering a plurality of particles of the positive electrode active material 983 and having the positive electrode active material 983 packed therein. The surfaces of a plurality of positive electrode active materials 983 are covered with different graphenes 984. In addition, the positive electrode active material 983 may be partially exposed.
[0298] The particle size of the positive electrode active material 983 is preferably 20 nm or more and 100 nm or less. Since electrons move within 983, the particle size of the positive electrode active material 983 is preferably as small as possible.
[0299] In addition, sufficient characteristics can be obtained even if the surface of the positive electrode active material 983 is not coated with a graphite layer. However, when graphene is used together with a positive electrode active material coated with a graphite layer, This is more preferable because it allows the flow to flow.
[0300] 16(C) is a cross-sectional view of a portion of the positive electrode active material layer 982 in FIG. The positive electrode active material 983 and the graphene 984 covering the positive electrode active material 983 are included. The positive electrode active material 84 is observed as a line in the cross-sectional view. The graphene 984 is sandwiched between a plurality of graphenes 984. The envelope 984 may be bag-shaped and may enclose a plurality of positive electrode active materials 983 therein. In addition, there are cases where the positive electrode active material is not covered with graphene and is partly exposed.
[0301] The thickness of the positive electrode active material layer 982 is selected from the range of 20 μm to 100 μm. The thickness of the positive electrode active material layer 982 is adjusted appropriately so as to prevent cracks and peeling. It is preferable that:
[0302] The positive electrode active material layer 982 has a volume of acetylene that is 0.1 to 10 times the volume of graphene. Black particles and carbon particles such as carbon nanofibers with one-dimensional expansion, A known conductive additive may be included.
[0303] Depending on the material of the positive electrode active material, the volume may expand due to the absorption of ions that act as carriers. As a result, the positive electrode active material layer becomes brittle during charging and discharging, and part of the positive electrode active material layer is broken off. However, the positive electrode active material is charged, and the reliability of the power storage device is reduced. Even if the volume increases or decreases due to discharge, the graphene covers the surrounding area, so the graphene acts as a positive electrode active material. Graphene can prevent the dispersion of the positive electrode active material layer and the collapse of the positive electrode active material layer. Even if the volume of the positive electrode active material increases or decreases due to the change in the volume of the positive electrode active material, the positive electrode active material has a function of maintaining the bond between the positive electrode active material. Therefore, the reliability of the electricity storage unit can be improved.
[0304] In addition, graphene 984 is in contact with multiple positive electrode active materials and functions as a conductive additive. In addition, it has the function of retaining a positive electrode active material that can absorb and release carrier ions. Therefore, there is no need to mix a binder into the positive electrode active material layer, and the amount of positive electrode active material per positive electrode active material layer is It is possible to increase the discharge capacity of the electricity storage device.
[0305] Next, a method for manufacturing the positive electrode active material layer 982 will be described.
[0306] First, a slurry containing particulate positive electrode active material and graphene oxide is formed. After the slurry is applied onto the dielectric 981, a reduction treatment is performed by heating in a reducing atmosphere. The positive electrode active material is baked, and oxygen contained in the graphene oxide is desorbed, resulting in the graphene Note that not all of the oxygen contained in graphene oxide is released, and some of the oxygen remains in the graphene. The graphene oxide remains in the graphene. (Hereinafter referred to as thermal reduction) is not limited to reduction by chemical reaction using a reducing agent such as hydrazine. (Hereinafter referred to as chemical reduction) is applied to the electrode in the electrolyte to reduce graphene oxide. reduction using a method different from thermal reduction, such as electrochemical reduction using a Through the above steps, a positive electrode active material layer 982 is formed on a positive electrode current collector 981. As a result, the conductivity of the positive electrode active material layer 982 is increased.
[0307] Graphene oxide contains oxygen and therefore becomes negatively charged in polar solvents. The phenanthrene disperses in the polar solvent, so the positive electrode active material contained in the slurry does not aggregate. This makes it difficult for the particle size of the positive electrode active material to increase due to aggregation. This facilitates the movement of electrons within the electrode active material, thereby increasing the conductivity of the positive electrode active material layer.
[0308] A carbon layer or the like may be formed on the surface of the positive electrode active material particles.
[0309] The separator 933 may be cellulose (paper) or porous polypropylene, An insulator such as polyethylene can be used.
[0310] The negative electrode 931, the positive electrode 932, and the separator 933 are impregnated with an electrolyte solution. As the electrolyte containing lithium, a material containing carrier ions is used. When using a lithium ion battery, the electrolyte is LiClO4, LiAsF6, LiBF4, LiPF6, or Li Lithium salts such as (C2F5SO2)2N can be used.
[0311] In addition, the carrier ions are alkali metal ions other than lithium ions, alkaline earth metal ions, etc. In the case of metal ions, the electrolyte is an alkali metal ion instead of lithium in the above lithium salt. alkali metals (e.g., sodium and potassium), alkaline earth metals (e.g., calcium, Strontium, barium, beryllium, magnesium, etc.) may also be used.
[0312] In addition, a material that can transport carrier ions is used as the solvent for the electrolyte. The solvent is preferably an aprotic organic solvent. Typical examples of the aprotic organic solvent include: , ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, di Ethyl carbonate (DEC), γ-butyrolactone, acetonitrile, dimethoxyethanol Examples of the solvent include toluene, tetrahydrofuran, and the like, and one or more of these can be used.
[0313] In addition, by using a polymer material that gels as a solvent for the electrolyte, safety against leakage etc. is improved. Safety is improved. In addition, it is possible to make the lithium-ion battery thinner and lighter. Representative examples of polymeric materials include silicone gel, acrylic gel, and acrylonitrile gel. , polyethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide, fluorine-based polymers, etc.
[0314] In addition, a flame-retardant and non-volatile ionic liquid (room-temperature molten salt) was used as the solvent for the electrolyte. Or by using multiple batteries, the internal temperature of the lithium-ion battery can be prevented from rising due to an internal short circuit or overcharging. Even if the temperature rises, it can prevent lithium-ion batteries from exploding or catching fire.
[0315] In addition, instead of the electrolyte solution, solid electrolytes containing inorganic materials such as sulfides and oxides, and P A solid electrolyte containing a polymer material such as EO (polyethylene oxide) can be used. When a solid electrolyte is used, the separator is not required. Since it can be integrated, there is no risk of leakage, and safety is improved dramatically.
[0316] The structure of the power storage unit 913 is not limited to that shown in FIG. An example of 913 will be described with reference to FIG.
[0317] The laminated power storage unit 913 shown in FIG. 17 includes a positive electrode current collector 991 and a positive electrode active material layer 992. a positive electrode 993 having the above structure, a separator 997, a negative electrode current collector 994, and a negative electrode active material layer 995. The battery is made by laminating a negative electrode 996 having the same, sealing the laminate in an exterior body 999, and injecting an electrolyte 998. In FIG. 17, a power storage unit 913 is formed by stacking a sheet-like positive electrode 993 and a sheet-like negative electrode 996. The figure shows a stacked structure, but to increase the battery capacity, the above stacked structure is wound, Alternatively, it is preferable to stack multiple sheets and then seal them. When the battery is laminated, it has flexibility, making it suitable for applications where flexibility is required. It is suitable for the purpose.
[0318] In the laminated electricity storage unit 913 shown in FIG. 17, a positive electrode current collector 991 and a negative electrode current collector 9 The positive electrode current collector 99 also serves as a terminal for electrical contact with the outside. 1 and a portion of the negative electrode current collector 994 are arranged so as to be exposed to the outside from the exterior body 999.
[0319] In the laminated type electricity storage unit 913, the exterior body 999 is made of, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, or the like. Al is applied to a membrane made of a material such as propylene, polycarbonate, ionomer, or polyamide. A thin metal film with excellent flexibility, such as aluminum, stainless steel, copper, or nickel, is applied, and the metal On the thin film, an insulating synthetic resin such as polyamide resin or polyester resin is applied as the outer surface of the exterior body. A laminated film having a three-layer structure with a film can be used. This prevents the permeation of electrolyte and gas, ensures insulation, and also provides electrolyte resistance. do.
[0320] The shape is not limited to the laminate type, but may be, for example, a coin type or a square type.
[0321] Furthermore, a lithium ion capacitor may be used as the power storage unit 913.
[0322] Lithium ion capacitors are electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs). The positive electrode of the double layer capacitor (abbreviation for "double layer capacitor") is made of a lithium-ion battery using a carbon material. It is a hybrid capacitor that combines the positive and negative electrodes of a lithium-ion battery. It is an asymmetric capacitor with a different principle. The positive electrode forms an electric double layer and is charged and discharged by physical action. The negative electrode is charged and discharged by the chemical action of lithium. By using a negative electrode in which lithium has been absorbed in advance into a certain carbon material, activated carbon can be added to the conventional negative electrode. The energy density has been dramatically improved compared to the electric double layer capacitor used.
[0323] The lithium ion capacitor uses a lithium ion and an anion instead of the positive electrode active material layer. It is sufficient to use a material that can reversibly support at least one of the above. For example, activated carbon, conductive polymers, polyacenic organic semiconductors (PAS) (abbreviation for Semiconductor)
[0324] Lithium-ion capacitors have high charge / discharge efficiency, can be charged and discharged rapidly, and can be used repeatedly. It also has a long lifespan due to use.
[0325] The above-mentioned negative electrode is used as the negative electrode of such a lithium ion capacitor. A power storage device in which generation of reversible capacity is suppressed and cycle characteristics are improved can be manufactured. In addition, a power storage device with excellent high-temperature characteristics can be manufactured.
