In an example, the present invention provides a solid state battery device, e.g., battery cell or device. The device has a current collector region and a lithium containing anode member overlying the current collector region. The device has a thickness of electrolyte material comprising a first garnet material overlying the lithium containing anode member. The thickness of electrolyte material has a density ranging from about 80 percent to 100 percent and a porous cathode material comprising a second garnet material overlying the thickness of electrolyte material. The porous cathode material has a porosity of greater than about 30 percent and less than about 95 percent and a carbon bearing material overlying a surface region of the porous cathode material. In an example, the carbon bearing material comprises substantially carbon material, although there can be variations. |

1. A solid state battery device, the battery device comprising:
a current collector region; a lithium containing anode member overlying the current collector region; an electrolyte material comprising a first garnet material overlying the lithium containing anode member, the electrolyte material having a density ranging from about 80 percent to 100 percent of a theoretical density associated with the first garnet material, and the first garnet material comprising LaALiBZrCODXE where 2<A<4, 4<B<8, 1<C<3, 10<D<14, 0<E<2, and where X is one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Al, Sb, Ta, Nb, and Ba; a porous cathode material comprising a second garnet material overlying the electrolyte material, the porous cathode material having a porosity of greater than about 30 percent and less than about 95 percent, and the second garnet material comprising LaALiBZrCODXE where 2<A<4, 4<B<8, 1<C<3, 10<D<14, 0<E<2, and where X is one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Al, Sb, Ta, Nb, and Ba; a carbon bearing material overlying a surface region of the porous cathode material, the carbon bearing material comprising substantially carbon material; an oxygen bearing source in contact with the surface region of the porous cathode material; and a current collector structure configured to expose the surface region to the oxygen bearing source, and having a conductivity in a predetermined amount. |
