Abstract

The microbattery is formed by a stack of solid thin layers on a substrate which, starting from the substrate, successively comprises a first electrode, a solid electrolyte and a second electrode/current collector assembly. A first surface and a second surface of the electrolyte are respectively in contact with a main surface of the first electrode and a main surface of the second electrode/current collector assembly. The dimensions of the main surface of the first electrode are smaller than the dimensions of the main surface of said assembly, and the dimensions of the first surface of the solid electrolyte are smaller than the dimensions of the second surface of the solid electrolyte. The solid electrolyte is furthermore not in contact with the substrate.
