Abstract
An electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery and a lithium secondary battery including the same are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, an electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery includes a lithium salt, an organic solvent, and an oligomer represented by Formula 1 described in the present specification or a polymer derived from the oligomer represented by Formula 1. A lithium secondary battery including the electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery is improved by suppressing reactivity of lithium metal.
