The present invention relates to a solid-state variable capacitor, comprising a first capacitor plate (10), a second capacitor plate (12), extending substantially parallel to the first capacitor plate (10) and on a distance from said first capacitor plate, wherein at least the first capacitor plate (10) is structurally coupled to one side of a first layered solid-state battery wherein the layers (4-8) of said first solid-state battery (3) extend substantially parallel to the first capacitor plate (10) and wherein the first solid-state battery is susceptible to variations in the size in the direction perpendicular to the plane of its layers (4-8). This invention is based on the realization that the thickness of a solid-state battery (3) varies with condit ions prevailing in the battery. The movable capacitor plate (10) causes a change of the capacitance value of the capacitor.

A negative electrode (15) includes a negative-electrode current collector (16) provided with a large number of through-holes (16a) and a negative-electrode mixture layer (17) applied thereon. Positive electrodes (13) and (14) are arranged so as to sandwich the negative electrode (15). A thin positive-electrode mixture layer (20) having a high output characteristic is provided to the positive electrode (13), and a thick positive-electrode mixture layer (22) having a high capacity is provided to the other positive electrode (14). Since these positive electrodes (13) and (14) having different charging/discharging characteristics are provided, the energy density and the output density can be enhanced. Ions can move between the positive-electrode mixture layers (20) and (22) via the through-holes (16a) of the negative-electrode current collector (16), whereby a variation in the potential of the positive electrodes (13) and (14) can be canceled. Therefore, the durability of the electric storage device (10) can be ensured.

A negative electrode (15) arranged at the center of an electrode laminate unit (12) includes a negative-electrode current collector (16) provided with a large number of through-holes (16a) and a negative-electrode mixture layer (17) applied thereon. Positive electrodes (13) and (14) are arranged so as to sandwich the negative electrode (15). A positive-electrode mixture layer (20) containing a lithium cobalt oxide having a high capacitance characteristic is provided to the positive electrode (13), and a positive-electrode mixture layer (22) containing an activated carbon having a high output characteristic is provided to the other positive electrode (14). Since these positive electrodes (13) and (14) are provided, an energy density and an output density can be enhanced. Ions can be transferred between the positive-electrode mixture layers (20) and (22) via the through-holes (16a) of the negative-electrode current collector (16), whereby a variation in the potential of the positive electrode (13, 14) after the high-rate discharging can be cancelled. Therefore, durability of the electric storage device (10) can be secured.
摘要:
An electrochemical capacitor includes a polymer thin film, a liquid electrolyte absorbed in the polymer thin film, and thin flexible active electrode layers constituting anode and cathode composed of energy dense material of high intrinsic surface area positioned at either side of the electrolyte-retaining polymer thin film to tightly sandwich it between the electrode layers. In one embodiment, the capacitor includes a polymer electrolyte in which a polymer thin film is cast from the base polymer and impregnated with the electrolyte solution, which contains a salt for ionic conduction. In another embodiment, the base polymer material includes an ionically conducting polymer, a perfluorocarbon polymer backbone to which sulfonic acid sites are permanently anchored. The energy dense material of the electrode layers may be physically mixed with battery active material to enhance the capacity and discharge time of the capacitor. In fabrication, the electrode material is reduced to particle size suitable for application to a thin film metallized polymer substrate, and applied directly and adherently on opposite sides of the substrate by injection, spraying, or evaporation, and a final thin flexible film of each electrode is formed with a desired thickness by use of rods if a slurry, or by controlling the extent of spray or evaporation, followed by curing. In another embodiment, the electrode elements are laminated directly onto opposite sides of a single- or double- metallized polymer substrate.
