The invention discloses a lithium sulphur battery taking a lithium intercalated carbon material as a negative electrode in the field of an electrochemical battery and a manufacturing method thereof. The lithium sulphur battery comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, electrolyte, a diaphragm and an enclosure and is characterized in that the negative electrode is a lithium intercalated carbon material, rather a normal metal lithium plate. The manufacturing method for the battery comprises the following steps: (1). coating sulfur-containing positive material on an aluminium foil, and coating carbon negative material on a copper foil; (2). winding or stacking the positive electrode, the diaphragm and the negative electrode together, wherein the outermost layer is the negative electrode; (3). separating the outermost carbon negative electrode by the diaphragm, and then winding or stacking with the metal lithium plate pressed on a copper plate; (4). connecting all positive electrodes through electrode lugs, and connecting all negative electrodes with the metal lithium plate through the electrode lugs; and (5). adding lithium-ion electrolyte and keeping the mixture for 10-20 days. According to the lithium sulphur battery and the manufacturing method thereof, lithium is intercalated in the carbon negative electrode by an electrochemical method in advance, so that the condition that high-activity metal lithium appears is avoided during a using process of the traditional lithium sulphur battery, and the safety and cycling performance of the lithium sulphur battery are improved; besides, the manufacturing cost is low, the process is simple, and the application value is great.
