Layered Solid-State Lithium Battery

An all-solid-state battery cell has a lithium metal anode layer, an anode protective layer in contact with the lithium metal anode layer, the anode protective layer comprising at least one metal, a first electrolyte layer in contact with the anode protective layer, a second electrolyte layer, an electrolyte interlayer comprising carbon and binder, the electrolyte interlayer positioned directly between the first electrolyte layer and the second electrolyte layer, and a cathode layer in contact with the second electrolyte layer.
