Negative electrode for use with secondary battery and secondary battery using such negative electrode

A secondary battery comprising:

• a positive electrode;
• a negative electrode comprising at least two negative electrode portions;
• and
• an electrolyte,
• wherein,
• each of the at least two negative electrode portions include (a) a negative electrode current collector portion with a first surface and a second surface, (b) a negative electrode active material layer portion on the first surface, and (c) a deposited film portion on the negative electrode active material portion;
• the positive electrode and negative electrode are laminated together with the electrolyte therebetween,
• the two negative electrode portions are positioned such that the second surfaces of the negative electrode current collector portions face each other, each of the second surfaces having a ten-point mean surface roughness in a range from 1.2 μm to 9 μm without the negative electrode active material layer portion being formed thereon.
