Abstract
A method of forming an electrochemical cell is disclosed. The method comprises contacting a negative pole layer and a positive pole layer one with the other or with an optional layer interposed therebetween. The pole layers and the optional layer therebetween are selected so as to self-form an interfacial separator layer between the pole layers upon such contacting

A method of forming a coplanar electrochemical cell, the method comprising:
- (a) applying a layer of positive pole onto a first substrate;
- (b) applying a layer of negative pole onto the first substrate in spaced relation and in the same plane as the positive pole;
- (c) applying a layer of first electrolyte on and between the layers of spaced apart negative pole and positive pole, wherein the first electrolyte comprises at least one self-forming separator layer ingredient;
- (d) applying a layer of second electrolyte on a second substrate, wherein the second electrolyte comprises at least one self-forming separator layer ingredient;
- (e) contacting the first substrate and the second substrate readily facilitating interaction between the at least one self-forming separator layer ingredient in the first substrate and & second substrate layers to self-form an interfacial separator layer.
A method of forming an electrochemical cell, the method comprising contacting a first substrate with a second substrate, wherein the first substrate comprises (a) a negative pole and a positive pole in spaced relation and in the same plane as each other;
- and (b) a first electrolyte;
- and wherein the second substrate comprises a second electrolyte and wherein contacting the first substrate with the second substrate facilitates components in an electrolyte solution in the first substrate and components in an electrolyte solution in the second substrate to interact and/or react with each other and self-form an interfacial separator layer.
A coplanar electrochemical cell comprising
- (a) a layer of positive pole and negative pole in spaced apart relation and in the same plane;
- and
- (b) at least one electrolyte disposed on the layer of positive pole and negative pole and between the negative pole and the positive pole.
An electrochemical cell comprising:
- a negative pole and a positive pole spaced apart and disposed in the same plane;
- and an integral and in-situ formed interfacial separator layer interposed on and between the negative pole and the positive pole within an electrolyte layer, wherein said integral and in-situ formed interfacial separator layer is comprised of interaction and/or reaction products of components in a first electrolyte solution disposed on and between the negative pole and the positive pole and components in a second electrolyte solution and wherein there is no separately added separator.
