Abstract

This invention provides an electrode (100) for a lithium rechargeable battery, comprising a current collector (11) having a plurality of convex parts (12) on its surface and an active material layer (15) comprising an active material (14) provided respectively on the plurality of convex parts (12). The plurality of convex parts (12) are regularly provided on the surface of the current collector (11) while providing a space therebetween. A direction (S) of growth of the active material (14) is inclined toward a normal direction (D) of the current collector (11). A space (16) is provided between the adjacent active materials (14). Not less than 5% of the active material layer (15) in an arbitrary direction is accounted for by the space (16) on a plane parallel to the surface of the current collector (11). The tensile strength of the current collector (11) per [mu]m of the height of the active material (14) is not less than 0.3 N / mm and not more than 1 N / mm.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrode for a lithium secondary battery and a lithium secondary battery having the electrode. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of portable devices such as personal computers and mobile phones, the demand for batteries as their power sources has increased. High energy density is required for batteries used in such applications as described above. In response to such demands, lithium secondary batteries have attracted attention, and active materials with higher capacities than conventional ones have been developed for each of the positive and negative electrodes. Among them, a simple substance, oxide or alloy of silicon (Si) or tin (Sn) is considered promising as an active material capable of obtaining a very large capacity. [0003] However, when these active materials are used to constitute electrodes for lithium secondary batteries, there is a problem that the electrodes are de...
