Problems solved by technology

However, if a battery using a carbon-based negative electrode is repeatedly charged and discharged rapidly, dendrites of lithium metal are deposited on the electrode, and there is a possibility of heat generation and fire due to internal short-circuiting.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to an active material, an electrode, a secondary battery, a battery pack, and a vehicle. Background technique [0002] In recent years, research and development of secondary batteries such as lithium-ion secondary batteries and non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries have been widely carried out as high-energy-density batteries. Secondary batteries are expected as power sources for hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, uninterruptible power supplies for cellphone bases, and the like. Therefore, secondary batteries are required to be excellent in other characteristics such as rapid charge and discharge characteristics and long-term reliability in addition to high energy density. For example, a secondary battery that can be quickly charged and discharged not only greatly shortens the charging time, but also enables the improvement of power performance of hybrid vehicles and the like and efficient recovery of...
