Abstract: The present invention relates to a positive electrode active material and a lithium secondary battery using a positive electrode containing the positive electrode active material. More particularly, the present invention relates to a positive electrode active material that is able to solve a problem of increased resistance according to an increase in Ni content by forming a charge transport channel in a lithium composite oxide and a lithium secondary battery using a positive electrode containing the positive electrode active material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a positive electrode active material and a lithium secondary battery using a positive electrode comprising the same, and more particularly, to a positive electrode active material which has improved electrochemical properties and improved stability by controlling a pore area and a pore shape of a lithium composite oxide included in the positive electrode active material by adjusting the proportions of ammonia and caustic soda, used in co-precipitation for synthesizing a precursor of the positive electrode active material, and a lithium secondary battery using a positive electrode containing the positive electrode active material.

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.
