SOLID-STATE BATTERY ELECTRODE EDGE TRIMMING

Methods are provided for cutting electrodes in a solid-state battery. In one example approach, a method comprises arranging electrodes in a stack, the stack comprising a first and oppositely charged second electrode, wherein the first electrode overhangs the second electrode; laminating the first and second electrodes in the stack; cutting a portion of the overhang around the perimeter of the first electrode with a laser; and removing the cut portion of the overhang from the first electrode so that the first electrode overhangs the second electrode by an amount that is less than or approximately equal to a threshold amount.
