The electrolyte, which in thin film batteries is solid, are made from lithium phosphorus oxynitride (LiPON), although current research is trending towards ceramics such as lithium lanthanum zinc oxide (LLZO) and lithium lanthanum titanium oxide (LLTO).
The concept of thin-film lithium-ion batteries was increasingly motivated by manufacturing advantages presented by the polymer technology for their use as electrolytes. LiPON, lithium phosphorus oxynitride, is an amorphous glassy material used as an electrolyte material in thin film flexible batteries.
As with older batteries, materials lose or accept electrons, allowing the flow of electrical energy when the battery discharges or takes on a charge. Barrier layers in thin-film batteries control the movement of electrons and prevent the battery from short-circuiting.
The layers that comprise the anode, cathode, and electrolyte in thin film batteries are true to their name, with thicknesses on the order of microns (0.001 mm). They are often deposited using physical vapor deposition, typically by thermal evaporation and sputtering.
A solid-state thin-film battery can be safer, smaller, and less expensive. However, the batteries depend on films that can be less than a micron thick, made of highly purified materials, making them dependent on innovative technologies based on PVD. The manufacture of thin-film batteries depends on scarce materials such as lithium.
What’s inside a battery? A battery consists of three major components – the two electrodes and the electrolyte. But the commercial batteries consist of a few more components that make them reliable and easy to use. In simple words, the battery produces electricity when the two electrodes immersed in the electrolyte react together.
Through these processes, the surface roughness, thickness, porosity and chemical composition of the film can be controlled to meet the requirements of battery manufacturing. An important …
