Abstract:
A lithium secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and a nonaqueous electrolyte having lithium-ion conductivity. The positive electrode contains a positive electrode active material containing lithium. The negative electrode faces the positive electrode. The separator is disposed between the positive and negative electrodes. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode current collector includes a layer and protrusions. The layer has a first surface on which lithium metal is deposited during charge. The protrusions protrude from the first surface. At least one of the protrusions includes a conductive material and an insulative material.
