At least part of an end portion of the negative electrode is located inside a region between end portions of the positive electrode.
Abstract:
An electronic device having a novel structure is provided. A battery is provided in each component of an electronic device, whereby the electronic device includes two batteries. The electronic device including the two batteries and a display portion that can be called a flexible display and has a plurality of foldable portions is provided as a novel device.
Abstract:
Provided are a nonaqueous solvent containing a compound with high conductivity and low viscosity and a high-performance power storage device using the nonaqueous solvent. The power storage device includes an ionic liquid. The ionic liquid contains an anion and a cation having a five-membered heteroaromatic ring having one or more substituents. At least one of the substituents is a straight chain formed of four or more atoms and includes one or more of C, O, Si, N, S, and P.
Abstract:
A power storage device with reduced initial irreversible capacity is provided. The power storage device includes a positive electrode including a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active material layer, a negative electrode including a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer, and an electrolyte solution. In the negative electrode active material layer, the content percentage of a carbon material with an R value of 1.1 or more is less than 2 wt %. The R value refers to a ratio of a peak intensity I1360 to a peak intensity I1580 (I1360/I1580). The peak intensity I1360 and the peak intensity I1580 are observed by Raman spectrometry at a Raman shift of 1360 cm−1 and a Raman shift of 1580 cm−1, respectively. The electrolyte solution contains a lithium ion and an ionic liquid composed of an organic cation and an anion.
Abstract:
A power storage device with a higher degree of safety is provided. Further, a power storage device with improved cycle life is provided. In the power storage device, an ionic liquid as a solvent of an electrolyte solution, and an exterior body is covered with a conductive component so as to prevent direct contact between a positive electrode current collector and the exterior body. This suppresses elution of the positive electrode current collector due to contact between different kinds of metals and accordingly prevents a phenomenon in which the eluted metal of the positive electrode current collector is deposited on a negative electrode and the deposited metal comes in contact with a positive electrode. Thus, an internal short-circuit caused by the contact can be prevented.
