    That describes most all lithium ion batteries though. I think you always have one solid and one liquid.

      If that were true, they maybe they got both the anode and cathode solid but they still need the jelly roll inside?

      All I know is it’s still requires liquid in some part of it that makes it not a true solid state battery, but it’s closer and close enough to get away with using the word semi

      Edit: and Tesla uses their dry coated elctrode (and maybe anode) process which is specific to them and that’s not considered semi solid state. So there’s definitely a difference somewhere
