Problems solved by technology

[0009] At the same time, as a technology, the use of metallic lithium in the negative electrode was attempted to achieve an increase in the capacity of lithium secondary batteries, but due to the reaction of metallic lithium with the organic electrolyte contained in the battery during charge / discharge, lithium dendrites appeared on the negative electrode. The growth of the battery causes a short circuit between the inside of the battery and the positive electrode, and there is a danger that the battery will eventually end in rupture

Embodiment 1

[0050] Manufacturing Example 1—Depositing a Solid Electrolyte Membrane

[0051] An inorganic solid electrolyte film of a lithium (Li)-phosphorus (P)-sulfur (S)-oxygen (O) composition was formed on a glass substrate using a laser ablation method by the procedure set forth below.

[0052] Lithium sulfide (Li 2 S), phosphorus pentasulfide (P 2 S 5 ), and phosphorus pentoxide (P 2 o 5 ) are mixed together in a glove box filled with argon gas with a dew point of -80° C.; and the powder mixture is put into a mold for compression to prepare a spherical object.

[0053] Transfer the above target object from the glove box to the film-deposition equipment in such a way that the target object cannot be exposed to the air; set up the target object inside the film-deposition equipment and set the focus of the laser beam on the target object On, this source material is vaporized and deposited as a film on a substrate made of glass. The substrate did not heat up appreciably.

[0057] Manufacturing Example 2—Depositing a Solid Electrolyte Membrane

[0058] An inorganic solid-electrolyte film of lithium (Li)-phosphorus (P)-sulfur (S)-oxygen (O) composition was formed on a glass substrate using the laser ablation method by the procedure set forth below.

[0059] Lithium sulfide (Li 2 S), phosphorus pentasulfide (P 2 S 5 ), and phosphorus pentoxide (P 2 o 5 ) were mixed together in a glove box filled with argon gas with a dew point of -80°C; and the powder mixture was put into a mold and compressed to prepare a spherical object.

[0060] The above object is transferred from the inside of the glove box to the film-deposition equipment in such a way that the object cannot be exposed to the air; the object is erected inside the film-deposition equipment and the focus of the laser beam is fixed on the object On, this source material is vaporized and deposited as a film on a substrate made of glass. In this example, argon mixed with oxygen was used as ...

[0065] Manufacturing example 3—deposition of metal lithium film

[0066] A metallic lithium film was formed on the copper foil by the procedure set forth below.

[0067] Fix the copper foil substrate to the bracket attached to the substrate cooling mechanism in the vacuum deposition device. A metal lithium sample used as a source material is placed in a heating chamber of a vacuum deposition device, and the inside of the device is pumped to a vacuum. A very small amount of oxygen is introduced into the heating chamber, and the heating chamber is heated to deposit lithium into a film.

[0068] Oxygen in the film was analyzed in the depth direction by an ESCA-5400MC analyzer of Phi Corporation after deposition, and the result was 52 atomic percent on the surface, but 5 atomic percent at a depth of 0.46 μm. Surface oxygen is generated due to oxidation of the surface of the sample during processing. This oxidized surface layer can be removed by ion bombardment treatment prior t...
