Abstract
A lithium secondary battery including a cathode, an anode and a non-aqueous electrolyte. The cathode includes a cathode active material containing lithium-metal oxide of which at least one of metals has a concentration gradient region between a core part and a surface part thereof. The lithium-metal oxide includes elements M1, M2, and M3. M3 has a concentration gradient region with increased concentration between the core part and the surface part, M1 has a concentration gradient region with decreased concentration between the core part and the surface part, and M2 has a constant concentration from the core part and the surface part. The anode includes graphite having an average lattice distance d002 of 3.356 to 3.365 Å.
