A pouch for a rechargeable battery having stability by ensuring durability, a manufacturing method thereof, and a rechargeable battery including the same. The pouch includes a case having an opening and including a bottom surface portion, a side portion located along a periphery of the bottom surface portion and including at least one step portion, and a sealing portion located along a periphery of the side portion, and a cover configured to cover the opening of the case.

Pouch for rechargeable battery, fabricating method of the same, and rechargeable battery including the pouch

Disclosed is a secondary battery which includes an electrode assembly comprising inner stacked electrodes and at least one outermost electrode positioned on at least one end of the inner stacked electrodes; and a case configured to house the electrode assembly. Herein, the at least one outermost electrode comprise an inactive material.

Secondary battery and method of fabricating of the secondary battery

A piezoelectric element layer is further formed as a package material of a secondary battery, so that the secondary battery can be self-charged using a voltage generated in the piezoelectric element layer according to vibration generated in an electronic device and vibration generated by movement of the electronic device itself. The secondary battery includes a battery case that accommodates an electrode assembly, the battery case having an outer coating layer and a piezoelectric element layer formed on an inner surface of the outer coating layer, and a protection circuit module mounted to an outside of the battery case and electrically connected to the electrode assembly. In the secondary battery, a voltage storage is provided to the protection circuit module, and the piezoelectric element layer converts absorbed vibration into voltage and then stores the voltage in the voltage storage so that the secondary battery is self-charged as occasion demands.
