Abstract: A non-aqueous electrolyte for a lithium ion secondary battery capable of improving rate characteristics, and the lithium ion secondary battery using the same. The non-aqueous electrolyte for the lithium ion secondary battery includes a carboxylic acid ester and 2.0×10?6 to 3.0×10?3 mol/L of halide ion other than fluoride ion.

Abstract: In this non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, a positive terminal and a negative terminal extend in a first direction, protrude from a laminated cell stack, and are provided so that a center line is interposed therebetween, the center line passing through a midpoint of both ends of the laminated cell stack in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and extending in the first direction when the laminated cell stack is seen in plan view, and a first terminal with higher heat dissipation efficiency among the positive terminal and the negative terminal is provided in a location closer to the center line than a location of a second terminal with lower heat dissipation efficiency among the positive terminal and the negative terminal.

Abstract: A positive electrode includes: a positive electrode current collector; and a positive electrode active material layer disposed on the positive electrode current collector. The positive electrode active material layer contains a lithium-containing transition metal oxide represented by composition formula (1) indicated below, and a compound represented by LiVOPO4. The lithium-containing transition metal oxide and the compound represented by LiVOPO4 are dispersed in the positive electrode active material layer.
