    Abstract: A metal-air battery including an anode layer; a solid electrolyte layer; and a cathode layer directly contacting the solid electrolyte layer. The solid electrolyte layer and the cathode layer are a single unitary and indivisible body with no physical interlayer boundary between the solid electrolyte layer and the cathode layer. A portion of the cathode layer may be within the solid electrolyte layer. The cathode layer may protrude from the solid electrolyte layer. The method of manufacturing a metal-air battery may include forming a solid electrolyte layer on an anode layer and chemically reducing solid electrolyte in a part of the solid electrolyte layer.

    Abstract: Provided is a metal-air battery including a cathode having a space which may be filled with a metal oxide formed during a discharge of the metal-air battery and thus having improved energy density and lifespan. The cathode for the metal-air battery includes a plurality of cathode materials, a plurality of electrolyte films disposed on surfaces of the plurality of cathode materials, and a plurality of spaces which are not occupied by the plurality of cathode materials and the plurality of electrolyte films. A volume of the plurality of spaces may be greater than or equal to a maximum space of a metal oxide formed during a discharge of the metal-air battery.
