A hybrid battery is provided that includes a cathode active material containing a carbon fluoride material and a phthalocyanine compound, an anode active material consisting of lithium metal, a lithium alloy, or a combination thereof; and a porous separator interposed between the cathode active material and the anode active material. The carbon fluoride material has a carbon to fluoride ratio of about 0.5 to about 3.0, and the phthalocyanine compound has an average particle size in a range from greater than 50 nm to less than about 500 nm. A weight ratio between the carbon fluoride material and the phthalocyanine compound is between about 1:20 to about 20:1. The performance (e.g., rate and discharge capacity) of this hybrid primary lithium battery is significantly enhanced.

Hybrid primary lithium battery

A lithium ion battery cell. The lithium ion battery cell includes a lithium-based anode, a cathode, and a solid-state electrolyte positioned between the lithium-based anode and the cathode. The cathode comprises alkylammonium cation lithium phthalocyanine anion complex. The solid-state electrolyte comprises an alkoxyalkylammonium cation lithium phthalocyanine anion complex.
