Abstract
A bipolar stack unit cell structure includes: a bicell in which a first anode current collector, a first anode active material layer, a first electrolyte layer, a first cathode active material layer, a cathode current collector, a second cathode active material layer, a second electrolyte layer, a second anode active material layer, and a second anode current collector are sequentially arranged, wherein a plurality of the bicells are stacked, and a compression pad is provided between the first anode current collector and the second anode current collector of adjacent bicells of the plurality of bicells. The bipolar stack unit cell structure absorbs a volume change of an anode and suppresses or reduces a volume change of the entire cell to obtain a stable (or suitable) lifespan, and the capacity and voltage thereof can be freely (or suitably) designed by bipolar connection of the unit cells.
