A battery capable of obtaining a high energy density and obtaining
superior cycle characteristics is provided. The thickness of a cathode
active material layer is from 100 .mu.m to 130 .mu.m. The thickness of an
anode active material layer is from 85 .mu.m to 120 .mu.m, and the volume
density of the anode active material layer is from 1.7 g/cm.sup.3 to 1.85
g/cm.sup.3. An electrolytic solution contains
4-fluoro-1,3-dioxolane-2-one. Thereby, even when the thicknesses of the
cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer are
increased, the diffusion and acceptance of lithium in an anode are
improved, and superior cycle characteristics can be obtained.
