Aerosol Deposition Method as an Alternative Fabrication Method for All-solid-state Li-ion Batteries

Abstract

Aerosol Deposition (AD) technique has been used in fabrication of an all-solid-state Li-ion battery. AD thick film single layer investigations revealed that the materials used are dense and have an acceptable ionic conductivity. Stable 3-layered structures using Li₄Ti₅O₁₂, Li_1.3Al_0.3Ti_1.7(PO₄)₅ and LiCoO₂ as anode, electrolyte and cathode materials were successfully fabricated at room temperature using AD technique. Moreover, these structures showed battery behavior, being possible to charge and discharge these structures.
