ANODE ACTIVE MATERIAL FOR LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY AND LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY INCLUDING THE SAME

An anode active material for a secondary battery includes a plurality of composite particles. The composite particles include carbon-based particles containing pores therein. A silicon-containing coating layer is formed inside the pores or on a surface of the carbon-based particles. A surface oxide layer is formed on the silicon-containing coating layer. The surface oxide layer contains silicon oxide. A silicon oxidation number ratio of the composite particle is predefined.
