Abstract
An electrochemical cell has an anode of electrochemically-active material; a cathode of electrochemically-active, porous, liquid-permeable, sintered, ceramic material; and a solid-state, liquid-impermeable electrolyte medium disposed between the anode and the cathode. The electrolyte may be a layer of glass or a layer of glass ceramic, or may be a combination of a layer of glass and a layer of glass ceramic. The cell may further contain a liquid electrolyte diffused throughout the cathode.
