    摘要: A lithium secondary battery includes an electrode group and a nonaqueous electrolyte having lithium ion conductivity. A negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode current collector has a first surface facing an outward direction of winding of the electrode group and a second surface facing an inward direction of the winding of the electrode group. Lithium metal is deposited on the first surface and the second surface by charge. The negative electrode further includes first protrusions protruding from the first surface and second protrusions protruding from the second surface. A ratio A1X/A1 is less than a ratio A2X/A2. A1X is a sum of projected areas of the first protrusions on the first surface. A1 is an area of the first surface. A2X is a sum of projected areas of the second protrusions on the second surface. A2 is an area of the second surface.

    摘要: A method of charging a secondary battery, the battery including a positive electrode in which a lithium ion is stored during discharging and released during charging, a negative electrode in which a lithium metal deposits during charging and dissolves during discharging, and a non-aqueous electrolyte having a lithium ion conductivity, wherein the method includes a step of charging the secondary battery according to a first charging profile. In the secondary battery, a surface of the negative electrode is covered with a protection layer. In the first charging profile, charging starts from a first charging step in which charging is performed at a constant current with a first electric current density I1, and following the first charging step, a second charging step is performed in which charging is performed at a constant current with a second electric current density I2 that is larger than the first electric current density I1.
