a counter electrode layer disposed to face the electrode layer; and
a solid electrolyte layer located between the electrode layer and the counter electrode layer, wherein;
the electrode layer includes:
a current collector; and
an active material layer located between the current collector and the solid electrolyte layer and having an area smaller than areas of the current collector and the solid electrolyte layer in plan view,
in the plan view, when a region where the active material layer is located is designated as a first region and a region outside the first region is designated as a second region,
the solid electrolyte layer covers an outside of the active material layer in the plan view and is in contact with the current collector in the second region, and
the current collector includes at least one structural defect portion having a line shape in the plan view located only in the second region,
the current collector includes:
a current collector layer in contact with the active material layer; and
a substrate in contact with a surface of the current collector layer opposite to a surface facing the active material layer, and
the at least one structural defect portion is formed in the substrate.
