Positive electrode, rechargeable lithium battery including the same, and method of manufacturing the same

Abstract

Disclosed are positive electrodes, rechargeable lithium batteries including the positive electrode, and methods of manufacturing the positive electrode. The positive electrode includes a current collector and a positive electrode active material layer on the current collector. The positive electrode active material layer comprises a first positive electrode active material that comprises lithium-nickel-based composite oxide and has a bare form without a carbon coating on a surface thereof, a second positive electrode active material that comprises lithium-nickel-based composite oxide and has a core and a carbon coating layer on the core, a conductive material that comprises a carbon-based material, and a binder.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
