An anode with a multi-layer structure including a first layer (21) having
carbon as a main component, and a second layer (22) having lithium-ion
conductivity and including a material as a main component thereof which
can insert and extract lithium ions, or a multi-layer structure including
a third layer (23) containing lithium in addition to the first layer and
the second layer, and a lithium secondary battery including the same. The
lithium secondary battery can be provided in which the battery capacity
is substantially enhanced in the voltage range where the battery is
actually used while maintaining the higher charge-discharge efficiency
and the excellent cycle performance.
