    摘要: A method of manufacturing a cathode active material for a lithium secondary battery according to embodiments of the present invention includes performing a first heat treatment on a first mixture of a transition metal precursor and a lithium precursor at a first calcination temperature to obtain a preliminary lithium-transition metal composite oxide particle; and performing a second heat treatment on a second mixture obtained by adding the lithium precursor to the preliminary lithium-transition metal composite oxide particle at a second calcination temperature which is lower than the first calcination temperature to form a lithium-transition metal composite oxide particle.

    摘要: A lithium secondary battery includes a cathode including a cathode active material including a lithium-transition metal composite oxide particle having a crystal grain size of greater than 500 nm measured through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and an anode disposed to face the cathode. The present invention provides a lithium secondary battery having improved life-span characteristics while suppressing gas generation due to crack of the particles by controlling the crystal grain size of the lithium-transition metal composite oxide particles.
