Negative electrode for lithium-ion secondary battery, manufacturing method thereof, and lithium-ion secondary battery

Abstract

To provide a lithium-ion secondary battery which has high charge and discharge capacity, is capable of being charged and discharged at high rate and has good cycle characteristics. A negative electrode includes a current collector and a negative electrode active material layer. The current collector includes a plurality of protrusion portions extending in the direction substantially perpendicular to the current collector and a base portion connected to the plurality of protrusion portions. The protrusion portions and the base portion are formed using the same material containing titanium. At least side surfaces of the protrusion portions are covered with the negative electrode active material layer. In the negative electrode active material layer, silicon layers and silicon oxide layers are alternately stacked between a plane where the protrusion portions are in contact with the negative electrode active material layer and a surface of the negative electrode active material layer.
