    Abstract: A silicon-oxygen composite anode material includes a kernel, a coating layer wrapped outside the kernel, and an intermediate layer located between the kernel and the coating layer. The intermediate layer includes the non-lithium silicate, and mass content of the non-lithium silicate in the intermediate layer progressively decreases from the intermediate layer to the kernel. The progressive decrease includes a gradient decrease from the intermediate layer to the kernel. The gradient decrease refers to that mass proportions on a circumference with a same distance from a center of the kernel are the same, and the mass proportion decreases gradually as the distance from the center of the kernel decreases. The non-lithium silicate is generated in situ at an outer layer of the kernel, and has a non-water-soluble, non-alkaline, or weak-alkaline dense structure.
