Abstract
Lithium ion batteries are widely used in a variety of portable products because of their high energy density. Recently solid-state lithium ion batteries have been studied to solve the safety issue of liquid electrolyte. In order to realize solid state thin film batteries, we prepared electrode thin films by RF magnetron sputtering on Pt/Ti/Si substrates. In this study, LiCoO2(LCO) cathode thin films were deposited. After annealing at 620°C, clear diffraction of (003) and (101) orientation was detected in XRD measurements. Si anode, Cyclic voltammgram showed oxidation and reduction peaks at 0.6 V, 0.01 V, respectively. We also measured the capacity of the Si thin film by the discharge-charge curves. The discharge-charge capacity of 660 μAh/(cm2・μm) and 609 μAh/(cm2・μm) could be obtained for the Si anode thin films, respectively.
