An electrode, in particular for micro-batteries, produced in a plurality of layers with intermediate steps of masking a first layer leaving some parts of the latter exposed in order next to produce a removal of material eliminating defects. After removal of the masking layer, the second layer can be formed. Other layers can then follow in the same way.

Storage device and manufacturing method

The method for fabricating an electrochemical device includes the following successive steps: a first stack successively including a first electrode and an electrically insulating electrolyte having a first main surface in contact with the first electrode and an opposite second main surface; a polymerisation step of the electrolyte so as to define at least a first area presenting a first degree of cross-linking and a first cross-linking density and a second area presenting a second degree of cross-linking different from the first degree of cross-linking and/or a second cross-linking density different from the first cross-linking density, said at least first and second areas connecting the first main surface with the second main surface; and placing the second electrode in contact with the electrolyte.

Method for fabricating an electrochemical device and electrochemical device

The method for fabricating a lithium microbattery is performed from a stack of layers successively including: a first layer made from a first material, a second layer made from a second material, a solid electrolyte layer and a first electrode. The method further includes etching to form a first pattern made from the first material and a second pattern made from the second material, the second pattern defining a covered area and an uncovered area of the electrolyte layer. The uncovered area is then etched using the second pattern as etching mask. After etching of the first pattern, a lithium-based layer is formed on the second pattern, the lithium-based layer and the second pattern forming a second lithium-based electrode.
