摘要

A negative-electrode active material layer having a line-and-space structure is formed by applying an application liquid containing a negative-electrode active material in stripes on a surface of a negative-electrode current collector using a nozzle-scan coating method and drying the application liquid (Steps S101, S102). Subsequently, by a spin coating method, an application liquid containing a solid electrolyte material is applied (Step S103) and heated at a temperature lower than a glass-transition temperature of the electrolyte material to be dried. Further, an application liquid containing a positive-electrode active material is applied (Step S105) and a positive-electrode current collector is laminated (Step S106) and, then, a laminated body is heated to or above the glass-transition temperature of the electrolyte material to cause the solid electrolyte to flow and adhere to the active material layers.

1. A battery manufacturing method, comprising:
a first active material layer forming step of forming a first active material layer on a surface of a base material by applying a first application liquid containing a first active material on the surface of the base material, the first active material layer having unevenness on a surface opposite to a surface in contact with the base material, by discharging the first application liquid from a nozzle relatively moving with respect to the base material, to form a stripe-shaped pattern having a plurality of lines of the first active material; an electrolyte layer forming step of forming a solid electrolyte layer by applying a second application liquid which contains a solid electrolyte material on the surface of the first active material layer, and heating the second application liquid to a temperature lower than a glass-transition temperature of the solid electrolyte material for increasing viscosity of the second application liquid after the second application liquid is applied, the electrolyte layer having unevenness in conformity with unevenness of the first active material layer on a surface opposite to a surface in contact with the first active material layer, and the thickness of the solid electrolyte layer being made smaller than a height of the unevenness on the surface of the first active material layer; a second active material layer forming step of forming a second active material layer by applying a third application liquid containing a second active material on the surface of the solid electrolyte layer; and a heating step of heating the solid electrolyte layer to a temperature equal to or higher than the glass-transition temperature of the solid electrolyte material to reduce the viscosity of the solid electrolyte layer and to increase fluidity of the solid electrolyte layer so that the solid electrolyte material fills up clearance between the first active material layer and the second active material layer after the second active material layer forming step.
