LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME

Disclosed are a lithium secondary battery configured such that a separator and a cathode plate are disposed between an anode current collector and a cathode current collector and an electrolyte is provided between the anode current collector and the cathode plate, in which the cathode plate is formed by pressing a cathode active material powder, and the cathode plate is coated with a sacrificial material formed of a compound containing lithium, and a method of manufacturing the same.
