Abstract
When a layered rock-salt type cathode active material and a sulfide solid electrolyte are mixed to be a cathode mixture, and an all solid-state battery is obtained using this mixture, oxygen is released from the cathode active material when the battery is charged, and the sulfide solid electrolyte is oxidized, increasing the battery internal resistance. To increase the concentration of cobalt inside the active material, and at the same time to lower the concentration of cobalt of the surface of the cathode active material, to suppress oxygen release in charging, specifically, a cathode mixture includes: a cathode active material; and a sulfide solid electrolyte, wherein the cathode active material has a layered rock-salt crystal phase, and is made of a composite oxide containing Li, Ni, Co, and Mn, and the concentration of cobalt inside the cathode active material is higher than that of a surface of the cathode active material.
