Abstract:
An object of one embodiment of the present invention is to provide a secondary battery in which deterioration of charge-discharge cycle characteristics is suppressed, to suppress generation of defects caused by expansion and contraction of an active material in a negative electrode, or to prevent deterioration caused by deformation of a secondary battery. To prevent deterioration, a material that can be alloyed with lithium and fluidified easily is used for a negative electrode. To hold a negative electrode active material over a surface of a current collector, a covering layer that covers the negative electrode active material is provided. Furthermore, a portion where the current collector and the negative electrode active material are in contact with each other is alloyed. In other words, an alloy that is in contact with both the current collector and the negative electrode active material is provided in the negative electrode.

Abstract:
To provide a power storage unit having a structure which is unlikely to break down by change in shape, such as bending. An electrode plate is covered with a sheet of an insulator which is folded in two. The sheet is preferably processed into a bag-like shape or an envelope-like shape by bonding overlapping portions of the sheet in the periphery of the electrode plate. The electrode plate and the sheet are fixed to an exterior body. In the case where the shape of the exterior body is changed by bending or the like, the electrode plate and the sheet can slide together in the exterior body. Thus, stress on the electrode plate due to bending can be relieved.
Abstract:
A short-circuit between a positive electrode and a negative electrode due to a deposit on an electrode plate is prevented in a power storage unit such as a lithium-ion secondary battery. An electrode plate is covered by a folded insulating sheet. Bonding is performed on facing edges of the sheet which overlap with each other in a portion outer than the electrode plate. One or more openings are formed in the electrode plate, and the facing edges of the folded sheet are bonded to each other also in the opening. Such a bonding portion enables the sheet to be in closer contact with the electrode plate and prevents the displacement between the sheet and the electrode plate. When the electrode plate is deformed or vibrated, the sheet can be rubbed against a surface of the electrode plate, thereby removing a deposit from the surface of the electrode plate.
