Abstract

A lithium ion secondary battery has a high cycle retention rate, and has its battery capacity increased. A positive electrode active material is used which includes a crystal phase having a structure formed by collecting a plurality of crystallites, and powder particles containing amorphous phases and formed between the crystallites. The amorphous phases and contain one or more kinds of metal oxides selected from the group consisting of vanadium oxide, iron oxide, manganese oxide, nickel oxide and cobalt oxide. The crystal phase and the amorphous phase and are capable of intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions.
