The invention provides a negative electrode for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and its manufacturing method, and a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery adopting the same. The negative electrode for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a current collector with a concave and a convex formed at least on one surface thereof, and a column member having n (n>=2) stages of laminated columnar portions obliquely formed on the convex of the current collector, wherein a layer being less in expansion and contraction due to insertion and extraction of lithium ion is disposed in the column member.
