SOLID-STATE BATTERY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE THEREOF

A solid-state battery that exhibits improved battery performance includes: a positive-electrode collector; a negative-electrode collector; a positive electrode layer formed on the positive-electrode collector and containing a positive-electrode active material and a solid electrolyte; a negative electrode layer formed on the negative-electrode collector and containing a negative-electrode active material and a solid electrolyte; and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer and containing a solid electrolyte. At least one of the solid electrolyte and the solid electrolyte partly represents a porous solid electrolyte.
