Abstract

Disclosed is a lithium secondary battery which comprises: a positive electrode which has a positive electrode active material that is capable of adsorbing / desorbing lithium ions; a negative electrode which has a negative electrode active material that is capable of adsorbing / desorbing lithium ions; a separator which is arranged between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; and an electrolyte which has lithium ion conductivity. The positive electrode active material contains a nickel-based lithium-containing complex oxide, and the negative electrode active material contains a graphite material that has a reversible capacity of 350 mAh / g or more and an irreversible capacity of 30 mAh / g or less. The ratio of the irreversible capacity per unit area (Qc) of a portion of the positive electrode facing the negative electrode to the irreversible capacity per unit area (Qa) of a portion of the negative electrode facing the positive electrode, namely Qc / Qa is 0.50 or more but less than 1.13. Consequently, the charge / discharge cycle life can be improved, while maintaining high capacity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lithium secondary battery including a nickel-based lithium-containing composite oxide in a positive electrode active material. Background technique [0002] Lithium secondary batteries have high capacity and high energy density, and are easy to be miniaturized and lightened, so they are used as portable batteries such as mobile phones, portable information terminals (Personal Digital Assistants; PDA), notebook personal computers, video cameras, and portable game machines. Power supplies for small electronic devices are widely utilized. Portable small electronic devices are required to be multi-functional, and on the other hand, it is desired to eliminate the trouble of battery replacement and improve the design of the device. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for a structure in which a lithium secondary battery is built into a device (lithium battery built-in type). In addition, lithium secondary batteries ar...
