Abstract: A positive electrode active material with high charge and discharge capacity is provided. A positive electrode active material with high charge and discharge voltage is provided. A positive electrode active material that hardly deteriorates is provided. The positive electrode active material is formed through a plurality of heating steps. The second and subsequent heating steps are preferably performed at a temperature higher than or equal to 742° C. and lower than or equal to 920° C. for longer than or equal to an hour and shorter than or equal to 10 hours. Through the heating, magnesium, fluorine, and the like are distributed in a surface portion of the positive electrode active material with preferable concentrations. The crystal structure of general lithium cobalt oxide is easily broken because it becomes the H1-3 phase type crystal structure when being charged at 4.6 V; on the other hand, the positive electrode active material of the present invention has a small ratio of the H1-3 type crystal structure when being charged at 4.6 V, and has the O3′ type crystal structure where a change in the crystal structure from discharging is relatively small, and thus has excellent cycle performance.

Abstract: A conduction path in an all-solid-state secondary battery is difficult to keep with a volume change in an active material due to charging and discharging in some cases. A positive electrode active material with a small volume change between the charged state and the discharged state is used for an all-solid-state secondary battery. For example, a positive electrode active material that has a layered rock-salt crystal structure in the discharged state and a crystal structure similar to the cadmium chloride type crystal structure in the charged state with a depth of charge of approximately 0.8 changes less in its volume and crystal structure between charging and discharging than known positive electrode active materials.

Abstract: A positive electrode active material which can improve cycle characteristics of a secondary battery is provided. Two kinds of regions are provided in a superficial portion of a positive electrode active material such as lithium cobaltate which has a layered rock-salt crystal structure. The inner region is a non-stoichiometric compound containing a transition metal such as titanium, and the outer region is a compound of representative elements such as magnesium oxide. The two kinds of regions each have a rock-salt crystal structure. The inner layered rock-salt crystal structure and the two kinds of regions in the superficial portion are topotaxy; thus, a change of the crystal structure of the positive electrode active material generated by charging and discharging can be effectively suppressed. In addition, since the outer coating layer in contact with an electrolyte solution is the compound of representative elements which is chemically stable, the secondary battery having excellent cycle characteristics can be obtained.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a positive electrode active material with high charge and discharge capacity is provided. Alternatively, a positive electrode active material with high charge and discharge voltage is provided. Alternatively, a positive electrode active material with little deterioration is provided. To improve the reliability of the positive electrode active material, the surface of the positive electrode active material is prevented from reacting with an electrolyte solution and being reduced. The provision of a projection on part of the positive electrode active material surface decreases the reduction of the positive electrode active material surface from reacting with the electrolyte solution, thereby improving the cycle performance.
