METALLIZATION PATTERN ON SOLID ELECTROLYTE OR POROUS SUPPORT OF SODIUM BATTERY AND PROCESS

摘要

Sodium battery configurations and a process for fabrication are detailed. The batteries include a solid electrolyte configured with an engineered metallization layer that distributes sodium across the surface of the electrolyte extending the active electrical transfer area of the cathode in electrical contact with the anode during operation. The metallization layer enhances performance, cycling efficiency, and capacity of the batteries.
