Abstract: An anode for a secondary battery includes an anode current collector, and an anode active material layer including a first anode active material layer and a second anode active material layer sequentially stacked from a surface of the anode current collector. Each of the first anode active material layer and the second anode active material layer includes a carbon-based active material and a silicon-based active material as an anode active material, and a carbon nanotube as a conductive material. A content of the silicon-based active material in the second anode active material layer is greater than a content of the silicon-based active material in the first anode active material layer. A Raman R value of the carbon nanotube included in the second anode active material layer is smaller than a Raman R value of the carbon nanotube included in the first anode active material layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a lithium secondary battery including anode active material layers which have a multi-layered structure and include carbon-based active materials having different contents from each other, thereby improving mechanical stability and battery performance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lithium composite oxide capable of improving capacity and lifetime characteristics of a lithium secondary battery and a lithium secondary battery including the same. According to the present invention, since the atomic ratio of boron (B) and nickel (Ni) in the surface region of the lithium composite oxide including primary particles enabling lithium intercalation and deintercalation and secondary particles formed by aggregating the primary particles is in a specific range, the stability of the lithium composite oxide may be improved, and thus it is possible to improve the capacity and lifetime characteristics of the lithium secondary battery using the lithium composite oxide as a positive electrode active material.
