Abstract
A battery cell includes an anode current collector, an anode material layer on the anode current collector, a cathode current collector, a cathode material layer on the cathode current collector, and a separator sandwiched between the anode material layer and the cathode material layer. Each of the anode current collector, the anode material layer, the cathode current collector, the cathode material layer and the separator including a first side edge. Each of the anode current collector, the anode material layer, the cathode current collector, the cathode material layer and the separator including a second side edge. The anode current collector and the cathode current collector each have a tapered shape, with the second side edge of the anode current collector being thicker than the first side edge of the anode current collector and the first side edge of the cathode current collector being thicker than the second side edge of the cathode current collector.
