The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a solid- state battery with a high flexibility. The method comprises the steps of: forming an arrangement of battery cells (2) on a first substrate layer and providing a barrier layer (5) between the battery cells and the first substrate layer, applying on the arrangement of battery cells on the side not covered by the first substrate layer a second substrate layer (13), and removing the first substrate layer completely from the barrier layer, applying on the barrier layer a third substrate layer (14).The present invention further refers to the solid-state battery manufactured according to the method, as well as to a device, including the solid-state battery.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a battery in which both electrodes and the electrolyte are solids which is called a solid state battery. Solid electrolytes are a class of materials also known as superionic conductors and fast ion conductors, and their study belongs to an area of science known as solid-state ionics. As a group, these materials are very good conductors of ions but are essentially insulating toward electrons, properties that are prerequisites for any electrolyte. The high ionic conductivity minimizes the internal resistance of the battery, thus permitting high power densities, while the high electronic resistance minimizes its self-discharge rate, thus enhancing its shelf life. Solid-state batteries generally fall into the low-power-density and high- energy-density category. The former limitation arises because of the difficulty of getting high currents across solid–solid interfaces.

An integrated device includes a Seebeck device (4) integrated in a substrate (2). A heat-generating device (6) warms up the Seebeck device (4) generating electrical power. The Seebeck device powers a further device which may be a micro-battery (8) likewise integrated in the substrate or a Peltier effect device for cooling another heat- generating device.

The present invention provides a means to integrate planar coils on silicon, while providing a high inductance. This high inductance is achieved through a special back- and front sided shielding of a material. Inmany applications, high-value inductors are a necessity. In particular, this holds for applications in power management. In these applications, the inductors are at least 5 of the order of 1 μH, and must have an equivalent series resistance of less than 0.1 Ω. For this reason, those inductors are always bulky components, of a typical size of 2 x 2 x 1 mm 3, which make a fully integrated solution impossible. On the other hand, integrated inductors, which can monolithically be integrated, do exist. However, these inductors suffer either from low inductance values, or 10 veryhigh DC resistance values.
