Abstract
A lithium battery includes a solid cathode and a solid electrolyte (SSE), wherein a structurally continuous block of material comprises the solid cathode and the SSE. The structurally continuous solid block of material has a first chemical composition in the solid cathode and a second chemical composition, different from the first chemical composition, in the SSE. The SSE overlies the solid cathode, without any physical separation or interface therebetween. A method for fabricating a lithium battery includes placing a first layer of particles of an electrolyte material of a first composition on top of a second layer of particles of a cathode material of a second composition, forming a stack; and compressing and heating the stack of first and second layers to form a continuous solid material. The formed material has a solid electrolyte (SSE) characterized by the first composition and a solid cathode characterized by the second composition.
