     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
     The solid-state battery in the present disclosure will be hereinafter explained in details. Incidentally, the solid-state battery refers to a battery including a solid electrolyte. Hereinafter, as a solid-state battery, “an all-solid-state battery” that is a solid-state battery not including a liquid-based material, will be described in details as an example. 
       FIG.  1    is a schematic cross-sectional view exemplifying the unit battery in the present disclosure, and  FIG.  2    is a schematic cross-sectional view exemplifying the all-solid-state battery in the present disclosure. Unit battery  10  shown in  FIG.  1    includes cathode current collector  1 , cathode layer  2 , solid electrolyte layer  3 , anode layer  4  and anode current collector  5  in this order along the thickness direction. Also, all-solid-state battery  100  shown in  FIG.  2    includes a plurality of unit battery  10  arranged along a thickness direction and connected in series. 
     Also, a total voltage of the all-solid-state battery  100  shown in  FIG.  2    at an SOC of 100% is 30 V or more. Also, the cathode layer  1  in the unit battery  10  contains a first halide solid electrolyte. 
     According to the present disclosure, the cathode layer in the unit battery contains a first halide solid electrolyte, and thus an all-solid-state battery in which short circuit occurrence is suppressed even when a high voltage is applied to a unit battery, may be obtained. Here, as described above, by connecting a plurality of a unit battery in series, a high-voltage battery can be achieved. Meanwhile, for example, when an all-solid-state battery in which a plurality of a unit battery is connected in series, is deteriorated, a total voltage of the all-solid-state battery may be applied to one unit battery. Although it is an extreme example, for example, when one unit battery is normal, and voltage degrade (such as voltage degrade due to foreign substance) occurs in all the other unit batteries, it is presumed that the total voltage would be applied to the one unit battery. 
     When the total voltage of the all-solid-state batter is applied to one unit battery, an oxidation decomposition reaction of a solid electrolyte included in a cathode layer (especially the solid electrolyte positioned around the cathode active material and the conductive material) may occur. A sulfide solid electrolyte has high ion conductivity, and is superior in performance as a solid electrolyte, but when the oxidation and decomposition reaction (such as 2Li 3 PS 4 →Li 4 P 2 S 6 +2S+2Li + +2e − ) occurs, the ion conductivity of the oxidation decomposition product (Li 4 P 2 S 6 ) is also high, and thus generated Li tends to move to the anode layer side. As a result, Li dendrite is deposited in the anode layer, and short circuit (internal short circuit) tends to occur. For this reason, there is a problem that the number of the unit battery to be connected in series may not be easily increased. Such a problem is a new problem that has not been conventionally known. 
     In contrast, in the present disclosure, a first halide solid electrolyte is used in the cathode layer. Regarding this first halide solid electrolyte, even when the oxidation decomposition reaction (such as Li 3 YCl 6 →YCl 3 +LiCl+Cl 2 (g)+2Li + +2e − ) occurs, the ion conductivity of the oxidation decomposition product (YCl 3 ) is low. Therefore, the oxidation decomposition reaction does not easily occur continuously, and thus the amount of Li to be generated is decreased, and the Li generated is not easily conducted in the cathode layer; thereby, the Li dendrite is prevented from depositing in the anode layer. In this manner, the present disclosure provides an all-solid-state battery in which short circuit occurrence is suppressed even when a high voltage is applied to a unit battery. Also, the later described Experimental Examples show a case where M 1  is Y (yttrium), but even when it is M 1  other than Y, the ion conductivity of the oxidation decomposition products is respectively low, and thus similar effect can be obtained. 
     The total voltage of the all-solid-state battery in the present disclosure at an SOC of 100% is 30 V or more. “The total voltage at an SOC of 100%” refers to the summed total of the voltages of each unit battery in fully charged state that is SOC (State Of Charge) of 100%. The total voltage at the SOC of 100% may be 40 V or more, may be 50 V or more, may be 60 V or more, and may be 100 V or more. Meanwhile, the total voltage at the SOC of 100% is not particularly limited, but 400 V or less, for example.

Specific examples of the oxide active material may include a rock salt bed type active material such as LiCoO 2 , LiMnO 2 , LiNiO 2 , LiVO 2 , and LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 ; a spinel type active material such as LiMn 2 O 4 , and Li(Ni 0.5 Mn 1.5 )O 4 ; and an olivine type active material such as LiFePO 4 , LiMnPO 4 , LiNiPO 4  and LiCuPO 4 . Examples of the shape of the cathode active material may include a granular shape. 
     The surface of the cathode active material may be coated with a coating layer. The reason therefor is to inhibit the reaction of the cathode active material with the sulfide solid electrolyte. Examples of the material for the coating layer may include a Li-ion conductive oxide such as LiNbO 3 , Li 3 PO 4  and LiPON. The average thickness of the coating layer is, for example, 1 nm or more and 20 μm or less, and may be 1 nm or more and 10 nm or less.

Incidentally, M 2 , X 2 , p, q, and r respectively correspond to M 1 , X 1 , α, β, and γ. 
     The second halide solid electrolyte may be, for example, Li 6−3B M 2   B X 2   6 , provided that B satisfies 0&lt;B&lt;2, M 2  is at least one kind of Y and In, and X 2  is at least one kind of Cl and Br. Preferable embodiments of Li 6−3B M 2   B X 2   6  are the same as the preferable embodiments of Li 6−3A M 1   A X 1   6  described above; thus, the descriptions herein are omitted. Incidentally, B, M 2 , and X 2  respectively correspond to A, M 1 , and X 1 . 
     The second halide solid electrolyte and the first halide solid electrolyte may be different compounds, and may be the same compound. As the second halide solid electrolyte, compounds (such as the compounds described in any of the composition formulas (A1) to (A8)) exemplified as the first halide solid electrolyte may be used. 
     In addition, the sulfide solid electrolyte preferably contains Li, M 3  (M 3  is at least one kind of P, As, Sb, Si, Ge, Sn, B, Al, Ga, and In), and S. Also, M 3  preferably contains at least P. The sulfide solid electrolyte may further contain at least one of O and halogen. Examples of the halogen may include F, Cl, Br, and I. 
     It is preferable that the sulfide solid electrolyte includes an ion conductor containing Li, P, and S. The ion conductor preferably includes a PS4 3−  structure as an anion structure. The proportion of the PS4 3−  structure with respect to all the anion structures in the ion conductor is, for example, 50 mol % or more, may be 70 mol % or more and may be 90 mol % or more. The proportion of the PS 4   3−  structure may be determined by, for example, Raman spectroscopy, NMR, and XPS. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte is preferably configured by an ion conductor containing Li, P, and S, and at least one of LiBr and LiI. At least a part of LiBr and LiI is preferably respectively present in the state taken into the structure of the ion conductor as a LiBr component and a LiI component. The proportion of LiBr and LiI included in the sulfide solid electrolyte is, respectively, for example, 1 mol % or more and 30 mol % or less, and may be 5 mol % or more and 20 mol % or less. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte preferably has, for example, a composition represented by (100−a−b) (Li 3 PS 4 )-aLiBr-bLiI. “a” satisfies, for example, 1≤a≤30, and may satisfy 5≤a≤20. “b” satisfies, for example, 1≤b≤30, and may satisfy 5≤b≤20. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte is preferably provided with a crystal phase (crystal phase A) including peaks at the positions of 2θ=20.2°±0.5° and 23.6°±0.5° in an X-ray diffraction measurement using a CuKα-ray. The reason therefor is that the crystal phase A has high ion conductivity. The crystal phase A usually also includes peaks at 2θ=29.4°±0.5°, 37.8°±0.5°, 41.1°±0.5°, and 47.0°±0.5°. Also, the half value width of the peak at 2θ=20.2°±0.5° is preferably small. The half value width (FWHM) is, for example, 0.51° or less, may be 0.45° or less, and may be 0.43° or less. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte may be provided with a crystal phase (crystal phase B) including peaks at the positions of 2θ=21.0°±0.5° and 28.0°±0.5° in an X-ray diffraction measurement using a CuKα-ray, but it is preferable that the crystal phase B is not included. The reason therefor is that the ion conductivity of the crystal phase B is lower than that of the crystal phase A. The crystal phase B usually also includes peaks at 2θ=32.0°±0.5°, 33.4°±0.5°, 38.7°±0.5°, 42.8°±0.5°, and 44.2°±0.5°. When I 20.2  designates a peak intensity of 2θ=20.2°±0.5° in the crystal phase A, and I 21.0  designates a peak intensity of 2θ=21.0°±0.5° in the crystal phase B, I 21.0 /I 20.2  is, for example, 0.4 or less, may be 0.2 or less, and may be 0. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte may include a crystal phase such as a Thio-LISICON type crystal phase, a LGPS type crystal phase, and an argyrodite type crystal phase. 
     Examples of the shape of the sulfide solid electrolyte may include a granular shape. Also, the average particle size (D 50 ) of the sulfide solid electrolyte is, for example, 0.1 μm or more and 50 μm or less. The average particle size (D 50 ) may be obtained by a result of particle distribution measurement with a laser diffraction scattering method. Also, the sulfide solid electrolyte preferably has high ion conductivity. The ion conductivity at 25° C. is, for example, 1*10 −4  S/cm or more, and may be 1*10 −3  S/cm or more. 
     The sulfide solid electrolyte may be obtained by, for example, conducting a mechanical milling treatment to a raw material composition containing Li 2 S and P 2 S 5  to form a sulfide glass, and then conducting a heat treatment to the sulfide glass. In the raw material composition, the proportion of Li 2 S with respect to a total of Li 2 S and P 2 Ss is, for example, 70 mol % or more, may be 72 mol % or more, and may be 74 mol % or more. Meanwhile, the proportion of the Li 2 S is, for example, 80 mol % or less, may be 78 mol % or less, and may be 76 mol % or less. The raw material composition may further contain at least one of LiBr and LiI. 
     The solid electrolyte layer may be a single layer, and may include a plurality of layers. When the solid electrolyte layer is a single layer, the solid electrolyte layer preferably contains a sulfide solid electrolyte. Since the ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolyte is high, by using such a sulfide solid electrolyte, for example, a unit battery with excellent charge and discharge properties can be obtained. 
     On the other hand, when the solid electrolyte layer includes a plurality of layers, the number of the plurality of layers may be 2, may be 3, and may be 4 or more. Meanwhile, the number of the plurality of layers is, for example, 10 or less. Here, among the plurality of layers (total of N layers), the layer closest to the cathode layer is regarded as a first layer, and the rest of the layers are numbered in the order along the thickness direction until the Nth layer. For example, in unit battery  10  illustrated in  FIG.  3   , solid electrolyte layer  3  includes layers in the order of 1 st  layer  3   a  and 2 nd  layer  3   b,  from cathode layer  2  side. 
     In the present disclosure, it is preferable that the first layer contains the above described second halide solid electrolyte. The reason therefor is to remarkably improve the voltage tolerance, as described in Experimental Examples later. The proportion of the second halide solid electrolyte with respect to all the solid electrolytes included in the first layer is, for example, 50 weight % or more, may be 70 weight % or more, and may be 90 weight % or more. The thickness of the first layer is, for example, 1 pm or more, may be 5 μm or more, and may be 7 μm or more. Meanwhile, the thickness of the first layer is, for example, 500 μm or less. 
     Also, it is preferable that the layer(s) other than the first layer contains a sulfide solid electrolyte. Since the ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolyte is high, by using such a sulfide solid electrolyte, for example, a unit battery with excellent charge and discharge properties can be obtained. In particular, it is preferable that the layer closest to the anode layer among the plurality of layers contains the sulfide solid electrolyte. 
     The thickness of the solid electrolyte layer is not particularly limited, and for example, it is 1 μm or more, and may be 5 μm or more. Meanwhile, the thickness of the solid electrolyte layer is, for example, 1000 μm or less. 
     (3) Anode Layer 
     The anode layer in the present disclosure is a layer containing at least an anode active material. Also, the anode layer may contain at least one of a solid electrolyte, a conductive material, and a binder, other than the anode active material. 
     Examples of the anode active material may include a metal active material, a carbon active material, and an oxide active material. Examples of the metal active material may include Li, In, Al, Si, Sn, and an alloy including at least one kind of these. Examples of the carbon active material may include graphite, hard carbon, and soft carbon. Examples of the oxide active material may include Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 , SiO, and Nb 2 O 5 . Examples of the shape of the anode active material may include a granular shape. 
     The solid electrolyte, the conductive material and the binder are in the same contents as those described above. Above all, it is preferable that the anode layer contains a sulfide solid electrolyte. The sulfide solid electrolyte is in the same contents as those described above. The thickness of the anode layer is, for example, 1 μm or more and 1000 μm or less. 
     (4) Other Constitutions 
     The unit battery in the present disclosure usually comprises a cathode current collector for collecting currents of the cathode active material and an anode current collector for collecting currents of the anode active material. Examples of the material for the cathode current collector may include SUS, aluminum, nickel, iron, titanium and carbon. Meanwhile, examples of the material for the anode current collector may include SUS, copper, nickel, and carbon. Incidentally, examples of the shape of the cathode current collector and the anode current collector may include a foil shape. 
     (5) Unit Battery 
     The unit battery in the present disclosure is a battery (lithium ion battery) utilizing Li ion conductivity. Further, the unit battery may be a primary battery and may be a secondary battery, but the latter is preferable. The reason therefor is to be repeatedly charged and discharged and useful as a car-mounted battery for example. Incidentally, the secondary battery includes a usage of the secondary battery as a primary battery (for the purpose of just discharge once after charge). 
     2. All-Solid-State Battery 
     In the all-solid-state battery in the present disclosure, a plurality of a unit battery is arranged along a thickness direction and connected in series. Also, a total voltage of the all-solid-state battery at an SOC of 100% is usually 30 V or more. The number of the unit battery is at least 2 or more, may be 6 or more, may be 10 or more, and may be 20 or more. Meanwhile, the number of the unit battery is, for example, 1000 or less and may be 500 or less. 
     Also, the all-solid-state battery in the present disclosure may include at least one of the unit battery in which the cathode layer contains the first halide solid electrolyte. 
     Also, in  FIG.  2   , in the neighboring unit batteries  10 , the cathode current collector  1  of one of the unit batteries  10  and the anode current collector  5  of the other of the unit batteries  10  are shared as one current collector. Although not illustrated, in the neighboring unit batteries, the cathode current collector of one of the unit batteries may be a different member from the anode current collector of the other of the unit batteries. In this case, the cathode current collector of one of the unit batteries is preferably arranged to face to the anode current collector of the other of the unit batteries. In addition, the all-solid-state battery usually comprises an outer package for storing a plurality of the unit batteries. The outer package may or may not be flexible. 
     Incidentally, the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments. The embodiments are exemplification, and any other variations are intended to be included in the technical scope of the present disclosure if they have substantially the same constitution as the technical idea described in the claims of the present disclosure and have similar operation and effect thereto.

     As shown in Table 1 and  FIG.  4 A , the voltage tolerance of Experimental Example 1 was 55 V. On the other hand, as shown in Table 1 and  FIG.  4 B , the voltage tolerance of Comparative Experimental Example 1 was 30 V. In this manner, it was confirmed that the voltage tolerance of Experimental Example 1 was higher than that of Comparative Experimental Example 1. In other words, it was confirmed that short circuit occurrence was suppressed even when a high voltage was applied to the unit battery. 
     In Comparative Experimental Example 1, the oxidation decomposition reaction (2Li 3 PS 4 →Li 4 P 2 S 6 +2S+2Li + +2e − ) of the solid electrolyte included in the cathode layer occurred during overcharge, and Li generated in this reaction moved to the anode layer side to deposit Li dendrite in the anode layer to presumably cause short circuit. On the other hand, in Experimental Example 1, although it was presumed that the oxidation decomposition reaction (Li 3 YCl 6 →YCl 3 +LiCl+Cl 2 (g)+2Li + +2e − ) of the solid electrolyte included in the cathode layer occurred during overcharge, the ion conductivity of YCl 3  (oxidation decomposition product) was lower than that of Li 4 P 2 S 6  (oxidation decomposition product in Comparative Experimental Example 1). For this reason, it was presumed that the oxidation decomposition reaction did not easily continuously occur to reduce the amount of Li generation, and the Li generated did not easily conduct in the cathode layer; as a result, the voltage tolerance improved. 
     Also, as shown in Table 1, it was confirmed that the voltage tolerance of Experimental Examples 2 and 6 was respectively higher than that of Comparative Experimental Examples 1 to 3. Incidentally, the voltage tolerance of Experimental Examples 4 to 6 was respectively lower than that of Experimental Examples 1 to 3. The reason therefor is presumably because the reduction decomposition reaction of the solid electrolyte (Li 3 YX 6 ) included in the solid electrolyte layer proceeded in the interface between the solid electrolyte layer and the anode layer, and the oxidation decomposition proceeded at the same time. In other words, for proceeding the decomposition reaction, the oxidation reaction and the reduction reaction need to occur at the same time, but in Experimental Example 4, for example, it is presumed that the voltage was reached at the value the reduction and decomposition of Li 3 YCl 6  occurred, and thus the reduction decomposition proceeded, and the oxidation decomposition of substances such as a binder (substances other than the solid electrolyte) proceeded in the oxidation reaction. 
     Experimental Example 7 
     First, a cathode mixture and an anode mixture were obtained in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1. Next, PVDF-HFP (from Sigma-Aldrich) as a binder, and Li 3 YCl 6  as a solid electrolyte were added to an organic solvent. After that, the mixture was kneaded by an ultrasonic homogenizer to obtain slurry. The obtained slurry was dried, mixed by a mortar, and thereby a mixture for first layer was obtained. 
     Next, PVDF-HFP (from Sigma-Aldrich) as a binder, and 75Li 3 PS 4 -15LiBr-10LiI as a solid electrolyte were added to an organic solvent. After that, the mixture was kneaded by an ultrasonic homogenizer to obtain slurry. The obtained slurry was dried, mixed by a mortar, and thereby a mixture for second layer was obtained. 
     Next, the mixture for first layer was placed in a cylinder having φ11.28 mm, and compression-powder-molded at the pressure of 1 ton/cm 2  to form a first layer. The mixture for second layer was placed on one surface side of the first layer, and compression-powder-molded at the pressure of 1 ton/cm 2  to form a second layer. After that, the cathode mixture was placed on the exposed surface (surface opposite to the second layer) side of the first layer, and compression-powder-molded at the pressure of 1 ton/cm 2  to form a cathode layer. After that, the anode mixture was placed on the exposed surface (surface opposite to the first layer) side of the second layer, and compression-powder-molded at the pressure of 1 ton/cm 2  to form an anode layer. An Al foil and a Cu foil were prepared respectively as a cathode current collector and an anode current collector, and these were placed on the exposed surface side of the cathode layer and the anode layer, and compression-powder-molded at the pressure of 6 ton/cm 2 . After that, the obtained layered body was restrained to obtain an all-solid-state battery. 
     Experimental Examples 8 to 15 
     An all-solid-state battery was respectively obtained in the same manner as in Experimental Example 7, except that at least one of the solid electrolyte used in the cathode mixture and the solid electrolyte used in the mixture for first layer, was changed to the solid electrolytes shown in Table 2. 
     [Evaluation] 
     The all-solid-state batteries obtained in Experimental Examples 7 to 15 were charged at the rate of 0.1 C. In specific, the all-solid-state batteries were charged continuously to overcharge, and the voltage at which voltage drop occurred (voltage at which short circuit occurred) was determined as the voltage tolerance.

     As shown in Table 2 and  FIG.  5   , in Experimental Example 7, faint voltage drop occurred at 55 V, but unlike Experimental Example 1 ( FIG.  4 A ), large voltage drop did not occur during charge afterwards, and the voltage tolerance was 110 V or more. The equivalent result to this was respectively obtained for Experimental Examples 8 to 15. In this manner, not only in the cathode layer, but also in the first layer, using the specified solid electrolyte allowed the voltage resistance to remarkably improve. The reason therefor is that, during overcharge, although it was presumed that the oxidation decomposition reaction (Li 3 YCl 6 →YCl 3 +LiCl+Cl 2 (g)+2Li + +2e − ) of the solid electrolyte included in the first layer occurred, the ion conductivity of YCl 3  (oxidation decomposition product) was lower than that of Li 4 P 2 S 6  (oxidation decomposition product in the second layer). For this reason, it was presumed that the oxidation decomposition reaction did not easily continuously occur to reduce the amount of Li generation, and the Li generated did not easily conduct in the cathode layer; as a result, the voltage tolerance improved.
