[0003] The technology disclosed in these publications is based on a method in which an anode body obtained by forming a valve action metal having a roughened surface and forming an oxide film is immersed in an electrolytic solution as an anode and energized to form a film on the oxide film. Although the electropolymerized film formed as above is used as a solid electrolyte, since the oxide film is an insulator, effective energization with the cathode is not performed, and current is applied to a defective portion of the oxide film or a place where the distance between the cathode and the cathode is short. And it was extremely difficult to obtain a uniform electrolytic polymerized film as a solid electrolyte.
