Recently, rechargeable batteries with high energy density are in great demand as energy sources for various purposes, e.g. handy electronic machines, zero emission electric vehicles, load leveling in electric power. Lithium secondary batteries are the most promising to fulfill such needs because of their intrinsic discharge voltage with relatively light weight. In 1991, the first lithium secondary battery of high quality and revolutionary concept was put on the market by Sony. In the commercial battery, called the “lithium ion battery,” lithium ions swing between the anode and the cathode through an organic liquid elctrolyte dissolving an inorganic lithium salt, like a rocking chair rocking from side to side.
