Abstract

Affords high-stability, high-safety lithium secondary batteries of high energy density and superlative charge/discharge cyclability, in which shorting due to the growth of dendrites from the metallic-lithium negative electrode is kept under control.A lithium secondary battery negative-electrode component material, formed by laminating onto a substrate a metallic lithium film and an inorganic solid-electrolyte film, the lithium secondary battery negative-electrode component material characterized in that the inorganic solid-electrolyte film incorporates lithium, phosphorous, sulfur, and oxygen, and is represented by the compositional formula noted below.aLi·bP·cS·dO(Li: lithium; P: phosphorous; S: sulfur; O: oxygen), wherein the ranges of the atomic fractions in the composition are:0.20≦a≦0.45;0.10≦b≦0.20;0.35≦c≦0.60;0.03≦d≦0.13;(a+b+c+d=1).
