5. A method for manufacturing a solid-state battery, the method comprising:
preparing a plurality of first green sheets and a plurality of second green sheets; and
preparing a plurality of positive electrode green sheets by forming a plurality of positive electrode conductive paste layers in a first matrix shape on a plurality of first green sheets by arranging a plurality of first groups of the positive electrode conductive paste layers at predetermined pitches along a predetermined direction so as to be shifted by a half of the predetermined pitch along the predetermined direction with respect to an adjacent first group of the plurality of first groups;
preparing a plurality of negative electrode green sheets by forming a plurality of negative electrode conductive paste layers in a second matrix shape on a plurality of second green sheets by arranging a plurality of second groups of the negative electrode conductive paste layers at the predetermined pitch along the predetermined direction so as to be shifted by a half of the predetermined pitch along the predetermined direction with respect to an adjacent second group of the plurality of second groups;
preparing a laminate by alternatively laminating the positive electrode green sheets and the negative electrode green sheets such that the first group and the second group face each other and are shifted by the half of the predetermined pitch in the predetermined direction;
cutting a plurality of raw chips from the laminate; and
firing a raw chip of the plurality of raw chips cut from the laminate so as to form a battery body having a plurality of adjacent elements, a first element of the plurality of adjacent elements including a first positive electrode drawn out to a first surface of the battery body and not drawn out to a second surface of the battery body, a first negative electrode facing the first positive electrode and drawn out to the second surface of the battery body and not drawn out to the first surface of the battery body, and a first solid electrolyte layer between the first positive electrode and the second negative electrode, a second element of the plurality of adjacent elements including a second positive electrode drawn out to the second surface of the battery body and not drawn out to the first surface of the battery body, a second negative electrode facing the second positive electrode and drawn out to the first surface of the battery body and not drawn out to the second surface of the battery body, and a second solid electrolyte layer between the second positive electrode and the second negative electrode, wherein the first surface and the second surface of the battery body face each other and are orthogonal to a laminating direction of the first element and second element of the plurality of adjacent elements;
forming a first external electrode on the first surface so as to be electrically connected to the first positive electrode;
forming a second external electrode on the second surface so as to be electrically connected to the first negative electrode;
forming a third external electrode on the second surface so as to be electrically connected to the second positive electrode; and
forming a fourth external electrode on the first surface so as to be electrically connected to the second negative electrode,
wherein the first external electrode and the fourth external electrode or the second external electrode and the third external electrode are integrally formed so as to connect the first element and the second element in series.
