The thickness of the polyester film layer is 23-27 m (inclusive), the thickness of the aluminum alloy foil layer is 27-43 m (inclusive), the thickness of the heat fusible resin layer is 70-100 m (inclusive), and the insulation breakdown voltage of the surface of the polyester film layer side is 13 kV or greater.

An energy storage device sits within a trench with electrically insulated sides within a substrate. Within the trench there is an anode, an electrolyte disposed on the anode, and a cathode structure disposed on the electrolyte. Variations of an electrically conductive contact are disposed on and in electrical contact with the cathode structure. At least part of the conductive contact is disposed within the trench and the conductive contact partially seals the anode, electrolyte, and cathode structure within the trench. Conductive and/or non-conductive adhesives are used to complete the seal thereby enabling full working electrochemical devices where singulation of the devices from the substrate enables high control of device dimensionality and footprint.

The disclosed technology relates to an electrical feedthrough for a battery cell. The electrical feedthrough may include a pin configured to form an external battery terminal, an insulator surrounding the pin and configured to electrically isolate the pin, a channel, and a serpentine tab electrically coupled to the pin at a first end. The serpentine tab is nested within the channel to minimize use of space within an enclosure of the battery cell thereby increasing energy capacity of the battery cell by eliminating the need to allot space within the enclosure to accommodate the tab.
